WHO IS KINGSPAN?

The Kingspan Group was founded in 1972 as a small family business in the Republic of Ireland. The Group was initially involved in the manufacture of metal cladding and roll formed structural sections. During the early 1980's, the Group expanded into the manufacture of insulated panels and insulation products and established manufacturing plants in the U.K. and Ireland.

Kingspan enterend the New Zealand market in 2004 through a distributor, this was replaced in 2006 with a New Zealand owned business operating as a sales office importing panels from manufacturing plants in both Australia and the UK.

The Australian plant is 2 years old, and Kingspan has invested in the technology to engineer and manufacture insulated roof and architectural wall façade panel systems providing the New Zealand construction industry local access to this innovative building system.
