Jan Vergote, Chief Executive Officer, commented:

“Recticel is pleased to announce another year of growth across the board in Insulation Panels and Insulation Boards. We are encouraged to have achieved this in flat building markets and look forward to future tailwinds as the cycle recovers.

In H2, substantially lower raw material prices have been passed through to the market, masking underlying volume growth. As we speak, A-chemical prices are surging and will partly reverse this effect though we are still below H1 2025 feedstock costs.

In order to continue and accelerate our growth, we have launched our Elevate 2030 value creation plan based on 6 non-cyclical smart pillars: operational excellence, administrative efficiency, advanced products, downstream offering, geographies, carbon footprint reduction. All our management efforts, major projects and acquisitions are part of this plan and more value creating steps will follow along these lines. We are pleased to see that our advanced products & downstream offering, now more than 20% of revenue, along with our premium mineral wool panels, also at 20% of the group revenue, outgrow our commodities.

Our strategic investment in a greenfield facility for both mineral wool and PIR insulated panels in Tennessee (US) is progressing as planned, and we expect to start production in Q4 2026. Our industry leading recycling plant in Wevelgem (BE) is planned to be operational by April 2026.The integration of our downstream acquisitions Miclar and Kuras is successful and our M&A pipeline is promising.

We have signed an agreement with Temda 1 to acquire the remaining 51% of the Ascorium shares for EUR 1 million, as we want full control over the strategic steps to be taken.”

OUTLOOK

Despite a slow start of the year, our expectation is that building markets may improve somewhat in 2026. Regardless of market effects, we expect to continue volume growth and to increase the share of high added value activities in our portfolio. Given the current volatility of the input costs and related pricing effects, we do not, in line with previous years, provide a quantitative outlook for the year.

1 Kuras BV (Insulated Panels) is fully consolidated as from 1 November 2025 and Miclar Group (Insulated Panels) is fully consolidated as from 1 December 2025.

4 Sustainability 1

In 2025, we achieved a 19.5% reduction in direct (Scope 1) emissions and a 36.9% reduction in indirect energy-related (Scope 2) emissions. This delivered a 36.1% decrease in combined Scope 1+2 carbon intensity per m³. These results demonstrate that strong volume growth and meaningful climate action can go hand in hand, with operational efficiency remaining a central driver of progress. Since 2021, we have reduced energy consumption per m³ by 34%, reinforcing the clear link between operational excellence and climate performance.

We remain on track to meet our targets approved by the SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative): a 90% absolute reduction in Scope 1+2 emissions by 2030 compared with our 2021 baseline. While achieving our 25% absolute Scope 3 reduction target remains challenging, we have already lowered Scope 3 carbon intensity per m³ by 14.3%. This progress reflects concrete actions to decarbonise both our operations and our supply chain through responsible sourcing, efficiency improvements, and targeted emissions-reduction initiatives.

Our performance has also received external recognition. Early 2026, we earned a Silver rating from EcoVadis, placing us among the top 15% of companies assessed globally. In addition, our sustainability reporting received formal recognition, underscoring our commitment to transparency, accountability, and measurable impact.

Indicators

Moreover, certain estimated datapoints for FY2021 for Rex Panels & Profiles have now been updated with actual data.
