Kingspan

Kingspan, headquartered in IE, reported total emissions of approximately 7.4 billion kg CO2e in 2025. This includes Scope 1 emissions of approximately 239.3 million kg CO2e, market-based Scope 2 emissions of about 20.9 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling around 7.06 billion kg CO2e. Key contributors to Scope 3 emissions were purchased goods and services (approximately 6.32 billion kg CO2e) and upstream transportation and distribution (around 234.3 million kg CO2e).

Looking back, Kingspan's total emissions were approximately 7.99 billion kg CO2e in 2024, approximately 9.13 billion kg CO2e in 2023, approximately 10.47 billion kg CO2e in 2022, approximately 10.57 billion kg CO2e in 2021, and about 9.0 billion kg CO2e in 2020.

Kingspan has made several climate commitments. The company aims for net-zero carbon manufacturing (Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions) by 2030. They also commit to a 90% absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2030 from a 2020 base year. This target also includes a 42% reduction in Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services, use of sold products, and end-of-life treatment of sold products within the same timeframe. Separately, Kingspan has a near-term target to reduce absolute Scope 1 GHG emissions by 65% and absolute Scope 2 GHG emissions by 65% by 2030 from a 2020 base year, as validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company also aims for a 50% reduction in product CO2e intensity from primary supply partners (Scope 3 upstream) by 2030, with a 2023 base year.

For the longer term, Kingspan Group plc has an SBTi-validated commitment to reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by 2050. This involves a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2050 from a 2020 base year, and a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions within the same timeframe. The company has also set a near-term target of a 23.5% Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions reduction from 2024 to 2025.
