Factory Upgrades that deliver Value
Recent investments in KORE’s manufacturing line have significantly enhanced product capabilities and their quality processes. Most notably the installation of a fully automated cutting and packaging line operates around the clock and brings several key benefits.
– Increased Capacity – The automation has doubled production output, enabling faster turnaround times and helping merchants respond to project demands more efficiently.
– Precision Cutting – Automated precision means more consistent product quality, tighter tolerances, and cleaner finishes—reducing on-site adjustments and ensuring installers get the performance they expect.
– Real-Time Monitoring – Built-in quality control measures detect and correct variations instantly, ensuring uniformity across every batch.
– Sustainability optimised – The system integrates a recycling process that reuses EPS offcuts and supports KORE’s commitment to a circular economy – key in today’s green building market.
Consistency you can rely on
In addition to the cutting line, KORE has introduced lean processes including First-In-First-Out (FIFO) inventory management, material traceability, and Kanban scheduling all of which reduce lead times and ensure on-time delivery.
KORE’s insulation products are backed by NSAI and BBA certification, as well as Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) through the Irish Green Building Council. Combined with dependable delivery, technical support, and a reputation built over decades, KORE remains a trusted name for merchants supplying quality insulation solutions.
