Kingspan is committed to measuring and reporting its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities across all its business divisions. It is its policy to promote the use of the GRI G3 Sustainability Reporting Guidelines on a progressive basis across its businesses, to ensure a robust reporting procedure. The GRI guidelines provide a globally recognised framework for reporting on an organisation’s economic, social and environmental performance.
In October 2011 Kingspan Insulated Panels produced its fifth annual sustainability reports using the GRI guidelines, to Level C standard. The next report is due to be published in 2013.
Kingspan Insulation has been producing full sustainability reports since 2004. The most recent report published in 2012 has been prepared under the GRI guidelines, and the company undertook an external assurance process to ensure accuracy and robustness of the GRI indicator data upon which the report is based. As a result, the report is commensurate with GRI application level B+.
