Kingspan Insulation has announced it is on course to add capacity to its manufacturing site in Winchester, Va.
The installation of the XPS insulation manufacturing line is proceeding on time and on cost. Once completed, it will allow Kingspan Insulation to continue to service demand for its GreenGuard line of XPS board products. The products boast moisture resistance, an R-value of 5 per inch of thickness and are suitable for a range of applications including cavity walls; continuous insulation; roofs; below-grade perimeter foundation and under floor slabs.
As part of this investment program, Kingspan Insulation has announced its intent to begin production of polyiso insulation in North America, providing more choice for specifiers and contractors.
Kingspan Insulation is currently appraising locations for 3 new manufacturing lines. Locations under consideration are at its existing plant in Virginia, at its sister company sites in California, Florida, Ohio, Ontario and British Columbia, as well as sites in Nevada and Texas.
