Part of the BEWI Group

Since October 2022, JACKON Insulation by BEWI has been part of the BEWI Group. BEWI is a leading, publicly listed European provider of packaging, component and insulation solutions.

The Group operates a circular business model: it produces both raw materials and finished goods while ensuring that used materials are brought back into the loop – through collection, recycling and processing into new products.

BEWI’s portfolio focuses on circular packaging and energy-efficient solutions for applications in the building sector. The Group pursues clear, ambitious goals: profitable growth and a significant reduction of emissions, both in its offering to customers and in its own operations. This is driven by the increased use of recycled materials and renewable energy sources.

Innovation, partnerships with industry stakeholders, as well as BEWI’s employees and its appreciative, value-driven corporate culture form the foundation for sustainable long-term value creation. Guided by the vision to protect people and goods for a better life, BEWI is at the forefront of driving the transition towards a closed-loop circular economy and a more inclusive society.

JACKON Insulation by BEWI actively contributes to this transition with the development of innovative solutions - for greater sustainability and continuously improving energy efficiency in the construction sector.

State-of-the-Art Production Line for Construction Boards Opened in Belgium

In mid-2024, the new plant for the production of XPS construction boards in Olen commences operations. Equipped with maximum automation and state-of-the-art robotics, this production line represents cutting-edge technology. Notably, the use of green energy and extensive recycled materials significantly reduces the CO₂ footprint of production. Additionally, shorter transportation routes to our customers help further reduce emissions.

With this new plant, JACKON Insulation by BEWI is not only significantly increasing its production capacity but also maintaining a strong focus on sustainability and continuous quality improvement. Together with the existing building board production in Mechau, we are consolidating our strong market position and optimally preparing for future requirements. More information here.
