2014 Performance Highlights<br />

During 2014, Kingspan <strong>Insulation</strong> carried out a sustainability-focused consultation exercise with the community surrounding the<br />

Pembridge site. A series of interviews was carried out with a random selection of members of the community. The conclusion of the<br />

exercise is that Kingspan <strong>Insulation</strong>’s current reporting approach more than covers the issues and expectations raised by members of the<br />

local community.<br />

The majority of charitable activity continues to be co-ordinated through the Kingspan <strong>Insulation</strong> Community Trust. In addition to this<br />

staff have been involved with raising money for various charities through the year. In 2014, Kingspan <strong>Insulation</strong>’s donations to local<br />

community and charitable initiatives equated to 0.43% of pre-tax profits.<br />

Collaborative work has continued with schools in the local area to the manufacturing sites, including supporting the Institute of Physics<br />

‘Lab in a Lorry’ visits to local schools.<br />

In 2014, Kingspan <strong>Insulation</strong> was awarded the Herefordshire Diamond County Award, Best Large Company, 2014 for Contribution to<br />

the Community in Herefordshire.<br />

the company reduced its target level of local<br />

2011 community and charitable donations to 0.25%.<br />

The spike in community complaints in<br />

2010 was due to issues with inbound<br />

hauliers.<br />

Throughout the year Kingspan <strong>Insulation</strong> staff were involved<br />

in a number of fund raising activities, from Christmas Jumpers<br />

for Save the Children to a Wear it Pink for Breast Cancer.<br />

The family fun day raised over a thousand pounds for the Air<br />

Ambulance and money raised from the Christmas Party was<br />

donated to Macmillan Nurses.
