Managing water

As a proportion of inputs into the manufacturing process across the Kingspan Group, the use of water is relatively small. Data is being gathered on several sites across the Group in respect of water usage in the manufacturing process, as well as for general catering and sanitary purposes. This data, and the agreed action plan arising from it, will be included in the next edition of Kingspan’s sustainability programme.

A policy to ensure all of the Group’s future building works and plant installations will include rainwater harvesting which is in the process of being developed. Installation of rainwater harvesting is planned on a progressive basis from 2009 to supply water to CHP units, and to top-up sprinkler system reserves.
