Kingspan Announces Health Product Declaration and Updated EPD
DELAND, Fla. — Kingspan Insulated Panels continues its innovation in environmental stewardship and sustainable practices. As part of its commitment to environment and sustainability, Kingspan signed on early as a supporter of Health Product Declarations (HPD) and was a BETA participant. At Greenbuild 2013, the company announced the first step in its HPD reporting.
Kingspan is committed to responsible chemistry and continues to work with its supply chain to support continuous improvement of the building industry’s environmental and health performance. Due to the complexities in HPD reporting, Kingspan chose to work with a third party to collect, review and submit this initial HPD report. The company’s decision to work with a third party demonstrates its commitment to enable project teams to make informed health-minded product decisions as part of a comprehensive product review, including functional performance, compliance, and the many other aspects of material evaluation and specification.
