Sustainability

Celotex products have been independently assessed by the BRE. With full “cradle to grave” profiles, you can be confident the results take into account the full lifetime environmental impact, including raw material extraction, manufacture, distribution, in-use performance and disposal.

As well as a comprehensive suite of environmental profiles, our Eco-Points score confirms Celotex as the PIR manufacturer with the lowest environmental impact. This score drives our newly awarded A+ rating within the 2008 Green Guide to Specification, allowing credits to be earned under the Materials section of The Code For Sustainable Homes and BREEAM. As the products are low GWP and zero ODP rated further credits can also be gained in the Pollution category. In addition, our “Climate Change” score confirms us as having the lowest carbon footprint of any PIR manufacturer.

The Celotex range of products encompasses the thickest and thinnest PIR boards available today helping reduce carbon emissions and lowering the overall emissions from homes, buildings and offices; and the use of Celotex helps gain substantial credits in the Energy & CO2 Emissions category of the Code for Sustainable Homes.

Through our lowest environmental impact score, lowest carbon footprint and broadest product offering, Celotex is proven to be the most sustainable PIR product solution.

“We have used 140mm of Celotex insulation throughout our zero carbon house and have been astounded by the thermal efficiency of the product. Celotex is making a major contribution to the reduction of the carbon footprint of the project. We cannot recommend it highly enough.”
