With a 2006 market value of over £650 million msp, the
market for building insulation products is undergoing a phase of
substantial growth, largely underpinned by the impact of Government
initiatives, the most significant being the Energy Efficiency Commitment
(EEC) and the Fuel Poverty programmes. Other key market drivers have
been: -the impact of the changes to the Building Regulations Part L
2002 and Part E 2003 - increasing levels of new housing output, the
recovery in office newbuild and the impact of several hikes in the
prices of a broad range of insulation products since 2005.
Over the period
2007 2011, we anticipate that growth will accelerate with the
implementation of the Carbon Emissions Reduction Target (CERT) to run
for a 3-year period from 1 April 2008 as it is to significantly
increase the targets set under EEC. Other factors that should drive up
demand will include increased levels of activity in commercial offices,
schools and healthcare construction combined with the impact of the 2006
changes to Part L of the Building Regulations.
