Kingspan Unidek Take-Back Guarantee: A Next Step Towards Circularity

Choose truly circular construction with Kingspan Unidek's take-back guarantee. We take back roof elements for recycling and reuse, reducing environmental impact and future demolition and disposal costs.

At Kingspan Unidek, we are committed to building a future-proof construction industry. With our Take-Back Guarantee, we offer a concrete solution for circular building: at the end of a building’s lifecycle, we take back our roof elements for recycling and reuse. In doing so, we close the material loop and reduce the environmental impact of both our current and future products.

What does the Take-Back Guarantee involve?
Once dismantled, the applied roof elements are collected and separated. The EPS insulation is recycled into new raw material, reducing waste, lowering CO₂ emissions, and keeping valuable resources in circulation. For clients, this means not only a more sustainable choice but also lower future costs for demolition and waste disposal.

Practical and financial benefits
The Take-Back Guarantee offers tangible advantages for developers, housing associations, and construction partners. By choosing circular roof elements today, they can save on future waste management costs while actively contributing to their sustainability goals. Upon request, clients receive a Take-Back Certificate as proof of participation.

Part of our Planet Passionate strategy
The Take-Back Guarantee is a key pillar of our Planet Passionate sustainability strategy. We are reducing waste streams, increasing the use of recycled content, and continuously developing biobased alternatives.

With this approach, Kingspan Unidek supports architects and project developers in realizing their ambitions for sustainable, circular, and future-oriented construction — today and tomorrow.
