Published on
26 April 2024

Launched in November 2023, “EPS, Teammates For a Greener Future” marks the second micro campaign by EUMEPS, underlining their comprehensive communications programme. This campaign highlights the key role of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) in attaining Europe’s Green Deal targets. The campaign aims to foster understanding and advocacy for EPS as a vital contributor to climate neutrality by 2050, focusing on its myriad applications and environmental benefits.


Objectives of the Micro Campaign


The campaign’s primary objective is to highlight EPS as an essential ally in Europe’s pursuit of its ambitious environmental goals. It seeks to:


Key Aspects of the Micro Campaign

Buildings consume 36% of Europe’s total energy, and their emissions reduction is vital for the 2030 climate targets. With its tested insulation capabilities, EPS presents an immediate, effective solution. EPS aims to reduce energy demand through enhanced building renovation and insulation, thus cutting emissions and preserving European lifestyles.

Amid the energy crisis, EPS’s affordability and insulation efficiency are crucial for low-income households in poorly insulated flats. This campaign asserts the significance of EPS in maintaining affordable heating transitions and maximizing resource efficiency in Europe.


Key Messages and Approaches


The campaign disseminates several key messages to engage stakeholders:

1. EPS as a straightforward solution to advance towards Green Deal objectives.
2. The necessity of EPS in reducing thermal demand to facilitate decarbonisation.
3. Highlighting the role of EPS in reducing the energy load and elevating the efficiency of heat pumps.


Further Insights


Thermal insulation with EPS reduces energy losses and maintains heat pump efficiency. EPS’s longevity, consistent performance, and cost-effectiveness are emphasized as eco-efficient choices for large-scale insulation projects, leading to significant CO2 emission reductions.

In packaging, EPS plays a pivotal role in reducing carbon footprints across the transportation sector. It ensures the safe delivery of a range of goods with minimal environmental impact. The campaign underscores EPS as a strategic material for Europe’s climate-neutral goals.


A Sustainable Future with EPS


EUMEPS’ micro campaign ‘EPS, Teammate for a Greener Future’ successfully casts Expanded Polystyrene in the limelight as a game-changer for Europe’s environmental targets. The campaign’s blend of education, advocacy, and demonstration of EPS’s vast capabilities positions it as an indispensable material in our journey towards a sustainable and climate-neutral future. Its essential role in achieving the EU’s climate goals underlines the need for increased awareness and application of EPS in various sectors, ultimately driving Europe towards a more resilient and eco-conscious tomorrow.
