Kingspan Insulated Panels North America announced a partnership with Dreyer & Reinbold Racing (DRR), a renowned team with a rich legacy in motorsports. Together, the duo will enter veteran driver Conor Daly in the No. 23 DRR Chevrolet Dallara Firestone car in the 110th Indianapolis 500 presented by Gainbridge on Sunday, May 24, at the historic Indianapolis Motor Speedway (IMS). 

Kingspan is a leading manufacturer of insulated metal panels (IMPs), designed to reduce the energy and carbon footprints of buildings, while delivering both architectural expression and high-performance building envelopes.

For Kingspan, performance is king. This partnership is a perfect match given Kingspan's commitment to high performance and a speed-focused business mentality.

“We value partnerships that reflect our shared commitment to innovation and excellence,” said Alswinn Kieboom, president of Kingspan Insulated Panels North America. “Collaborating with Conor Daly and the Dreyer & Reinbold Racing team on the Indy 500 race provides us with a unique platform to reach our primary customer base while promoting our North American growth ambition.”

Daly, the 34-year-old driver from Noblesville, Indiana, will enter his 13th “Greatest Spectacle in Racing” in the 2026 200-lap classic, with five top-10 finishes, including in 2024 with Dreyer & Reinbold Racing. After starting in 29th position for DRR, he finished 10th after leading 22 laps and was the race's biggest mover, gaining 19 positions. Daly has led a total of 82 laps at the 500.

“Having a chance to go racing at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway again at Indy 500 with DRR means the world to me,” said Daly, the popular local star. “I love this event. I can’t wait to get back in the car, and I appreciate the chance that Dennis and everyone at Dreyer & Reinbold Racing has given me to do the job I enjoy. We’ve set some high goals with the No. 23. We want to win this race together, and I appreciate that Kingspan has come on board for the biggest race in the world. We appreciate their support for this effort to chase after that nice cold glass of milk in the winner’s circle.”

The second-generation racer was the 2010 Star Mazda series champion with seven wins and captured the 2011 Indy Lights race at the famed Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach. Prior to his NTT IndyCar Series career, Daly competed in GP3 from 2012-2013 with a third in the series final points in 2013. In the NTT IndyCar Series, Daly has one pole (Iowa in 2020) and two podium finishes (second at Detroit in 2016 and third at Milwaukee in 2024). 

“We are excited to partner with Kingspan to field our No. 23 entry for Conor in this year’s Indy 500,” said Dennis Reinbold, founder of DRR. “Kingspan is a world leader in its field, and we are pleased to team them up with Conor and a strong DRR team this year. Conor has been a contender to win the biggest race in the world on several occasions, and we want to put him, Kingspan and our squad in the IMS winner’s circle on May 24. We were top contenders in last year’s event, and we are ready to reach the ultimate goal this year.”
