Global Communities
Kingspan grew out of a family business and those family values continue to shape how we think today.
In our 2023 ‘Our People’ section we highlight some of the great ways we share our success in Brazil.
Here we take a look at some of our other community highlights from 2023.
Kingspan launched its Planet Passionate Communities initiative in November 2021.
Through it we strive to support people and communities around the world while promoting sustainable practices using responsibly sourced solutions.
By creating a local impact, we aspire to build a world that is powered by renewable energy, net-zero carbon, manages water sustainably, and protects the earth’s valuable resources by reducing, reusing and recycling.

Children are the future
At Kingspan we recognise the power that children have in influencing our behaviours, particularly as it relates to the environment.
Children are a key part of our Planet Passionate Communities initiatives as we strive to give them the tools to create a brighter future.

Clean and healthy environment
Kingspan employees all over the world contributed to making their communities cleaner, healthier and more enjoyable for all.
“Clean up activities are always a fantastic initiative to organise with our Planet Passionate representatives because we can really see the employees getting involved in a good cause. Mostly in their free time too!”
Clément Damée, Marketing & Communication Manager, Joris Ide Group

A greener, more vibrant world
Our Joris Ide team worked together with children from local education facilities to clean-up Buziaș Park and plant over 200 trees. We also taught the children about segregating for recycling.
