Kingspan: Advanced Glazing Solutions for Sustainable Buildings

Innovative glazing solutions for modern architecture

“Sustainability is not a side project — through our Planet Passionate programme we are powering manufacturing with renewable energy and decarbonising every line. An EPD is simply the proof of work already under way.”

The Challenge

Daylighting and glazing products face rising demand to demonstrate, not just claim, environmental performance — driven by EU construction rules and specifiers who now ask for measured, comparable carbon data over a product's life cycle.

The Solution

Kingspan pursues this through Planet Passionate, its sustainability programme to 2030: a majority of energy from renewables with on-site solar PV across most owned sites, net-zero carbon manufacturing, and a Scope 1 and 2 emissions cut already reported at around 70% versus 2020. Its daylighting production runs on renewable energy, and the SKYLIGHT ONE rooflight is documented with a verified EPD published in the EPD Polska register.

The Result

The EPD turns corporate decarbonisation progress into product-level proof that architects and specifiers can rely on across European green-building programmes such as LEED and BREEAM.
