Cork Plant Now Powered by 100 % Renewable Energy
» FREEFOAM BUILDING PRODUCTS is proud to announce that its Cork manufacturing facility is now operating entirely on renewable energy. This milestone marks a significant achievement in Freefoam’ s five-year Sustainability Plan, launched earlier this year, and reinforces the company’ s commitment to environmental responsibility.
The Cork plant, which runs 24 / 7 producing long lasting building products, now sources its electricity from a mix of resources including some solar and wind energy. Kevin Cronin, Chief
Operating Officer, commented,““ We’ re on a journey. Our aim is to put reduce, re-use, and recycle at the heart of everything we do. Transitioning to renewable electricity is a major step toward reducing our carbon emissions and building a more sustainable future.”
This initiative is part of a broader strategy to embed sustainable business practices across Freefoam’ s operations. Dedicated energy teams at each site are actively exploring ways to improve efficiency and reduce energy consumption.“ This change is something all businesses can take on,” Kevin added.“ We believe it’ s the right choice and one that quantifiably reduces our greenhouse gas emissions.”
