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 spike in community complaints in<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 />
