Castleford insulation firm signs on with Irish giant Kingspan

Castleford-based insulation panels firmSipBuild UK has secured an exclusive deal with Ireland’s Kingspan.

According to the firm this is part of its strategy to achieve turnover in excess of £6 million over the next two years.

The partnership means SipBuild UK will exclusively use the Kingspan TEK® Building System for its client projects, supporting the company’s focus on growing its footprint in the public sector and among self-builders.

The deal follows a number of significant contract wins during 2014, which resulted in a 50% increase in turnover.

SipBuild UK managing director Chris Duckworth said: “Partnering with Kingspan as our SIP manufacturer is the next step on our journey to securing our place as the dominant provider of SIP structures in the UK.

“We both see massive opportunity in the growth of SIPs as it becomes a mainstream construction method because of the speed of construction, the thermal qualities it provides and ease of erection on site.

“Using the Kingspan TEK® Building System panels provides our customers with confidence that they are dealing with the market leading supplier of SIP panels and a delivery partner with the skills and experience to erect structures on time and on budget.”

The Kingspan TEK® Building System has been hailed as a major development in off-site construction technology. It is a next generation SIP based construction method, ideal for all building types.
