EcoVerify Awards KORE Insulation as First Irish Company to Achieve Accredited GHG Verification
A Measurement benchmark for Ireland’s climate accountability has been set, with construction leading the way.
Kilnaleck, Co. Cavan – 29th September 2025 – EcoVerify, Ireland’s first accredited greenhouse gas (GHG) validation/ verification body, has announced that Cavan-based KORE Insulation, a leading Irish manufacturer of high-performance insulation solutions, has become the first company in Ireland to receive a positive verification for its 2023 and 2024 greenhouse gas (GHG) inventories, confirming that KORE’s climate reporting has met internationally recognised benchmarks.
The accreditation was presented in Dublin by Mr. Peter Burke TD, Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment. This milestone is a confirmation of KORE Insulation’s commitment to credible climate reporting and transparency. Through independent verification, the company has demonstrated accountability to clients, regulators and stakeholders while contributing to Ireland’s broader efforts to meet its climate targets.
The EcoVerify validation and verification marks a significant step forward for Ireland’s construction sector, strengthening its role in driving climate accountability and aligning with international reporting standards.
Mr. Peter Burke, TD, Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment said: “Many Irish businesses are now demonstrating that sustainability is good for business. It’s great to see KORE Insulation achieve this level of climate action reporting, to have it verified by another Irish business, EcoVerify, and accredited to a world-leading standard. Government, businesses, and society are all working towards a shared target of net zero emissions, and I’m delighted to see Irish companies like these leading the way.”
EcoVerify has set the benchmark for Ireland’s climate accountability, by issuing the country’s first GHG verification under the accreditation, with KORE Insulation demonstrating a high standard in achieving this independent verification of its GHG inventories, for two consecutive years. The assessment, recently completed, was carried out under the EcoVerify GHG Programme in line with ISO 14064-1 and the Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate and Value Chain Standards. KORE also has a science-aligned Net Zero pathway validated and recognised by EcoVerify, which represents the strongest demonstration of genuine commitment to climate goals and achieving Net Zero.
Laura Mora, CEO of EcoVerify said: “We are delighted to award KORE Insulation this verification, a first in Ireland with this level of strictness. This achievement highlights KORE’s leadership in climate accountability within the construction sector and reflects the growing demand for credible, independent assurance of greenhouse gas reporting and Net Zero commitments.”
Caroline Ashe Brady, Commercial Director, KORE Insulation, said: “Sustainability is at the heart of KORE’s business strategy. Achieving Ireland’s first greenhouse gas verification under EcoVerify’s accreditation, this provides strong reassurance to our clients, partners, and regulators that we operate to very high standards of sustainability and are serious about measurable climate action and long-term accountability.”
Accredited by the Dutch Accreditation Council (RvA), EcoVerify also holds the world’s first accreditation to ISO 14068-1 (Carbon Neutrality) and its Net Zero Pathways Programme, providing independent assurance of organisations’ climate strategies, progress, and claims.
