OO Kingspan Insulated Panels Division Development Period Kingspan World Kingspan was founded in Ireland as a small family bussines by Eugene and Brendan Murthagh. First insulated panels were manufactured in Ireland (Over 30 years experience) 1978 Middle east oil crises forces governments to look at new ways to conserve energy used in buildings 1989 Kingspan goes public 1980 s Asbestos scare leads to an First manufacturing facility in UK open door for insulated steel panels to dominate the construction sector for 1989 industrial buildings - this co-insided with a boom in the construction industry in the UK in the same period Kingspan expanded through acquisitions and the addition of manufacturing plants and sales companies in the UK, Benelux, Germany, Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic Kingspan manufacture first insulated panels in Czech Republic Kingspan manufacture first insulated panels in Poland Kingspan opens Hungary s first state of the art panel manufacturing facility. Kingspan aquires 51% of Izopoli in Turkey in order to expand its manufacturing base and opens a new line in Adana - Also in 2006 Kingspan also opens its first panel manufacturing facilities in Australia and Canada Kingspan now has the most extensive network in Continental & Eastern Europe with over 20 sales offices and manufacturing facilities across the region Kingspan is opening modern manufacturing line for production of roof insulated panels in the Czech Republic Kyoto agreement - Governments agree to reduce green house gasses, this leads to increases in thermal regulations world wide and making insulated panels a suitable solution for many building sectors 2001 Industry concerns over EPS provide opportunity for Kingspans range of insurer approved Firesafe panel solutions 2002 Energy Performance of Buildings directive is introduced across the EU creating a renewed focus on the level of insulation used in buildings and creating further opportunities for Kingspan insulated panels
