## Summary

The procurement process for the "Loft and Cavity Wall Insulation Programme 2026-28" was conducted by Folkestone & Hythe District Council, targeting the refurbishment work industry category. Located in the South East of England, this project involves upgrading the thermal efficiency of social housing properties through the installation of fabric insulation. The contract has a total value of £1,200,000 and spans from 1st May 2026 to 30th April 2028. The procurement followed a selective process, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender stage was completed with a contract award decision in March 2026, and the contract was fully executed by 30th June 2026.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in insulation and refurbishment work, especially those capable of delivering large-scale projects. Companies like ARAN INSULATION LTD, the awarded supplier, exemplify the type of well-established businesses suited for such opportunities. Moreover, the project’s focus on social housing upgrades aligns with firms geared towards sustainability and energy efficiency improvements.
