Gordons has advised global building materials group Kingspan on the development and launch of PowerPanel, its innovative integrated roofing and photovoltaic solution.

Kingspan is a global leader in high-performance insulation and building solutions for the construction sector.

Its new PowerPanel solution combines high-performance thermal efficiency and leading photovoltaic technology, delivering a single, integrated solution to future-proof buildings.

A team led by partner and commercial and technology lawyer, Ryan Gracey, provided comprehensive legal support throughout the research and design phase, and led negotiations on supply arrangements with LONGi, a global solar technology company.

Michael Downes, general counsel at Kingspan Insulated Panels, said: “We expect the lawyers we work with to be knowledgeable in their area, but Gordons go beyond that.

“It’s clear that they are passionate about what they do and deliver a first-class service with every instruction. They know our business and how best to supplement our business needs.”

Kingspan’s solutions enhance building performance and play a vital role in delivering a more sustainable, energy-efficient future for customers and the environment.

Ryan Gracey said: “Kingspan is an exciting and forward-thinking business with a clear commitment to developing sustainable solutions that support energy efficient practices.

“We are proud to have contributed to bringing PowerPanel to the market and look forward to seeing Kingspan further strengthen its leading product offerings.”
