Good morning, and welcome to the Kingspan Preliminary Results 2021 Call. My name is Katie, and I'll be coordinating your call today. (Operator Instructions) I'll now hand over to your host, Gene Murtagh to begin. Gene, please go ahead.
Gene M. Murtagh - Kingspan Group plc - CEO & Executive Director
Thank you, and good morning, everybody. Welcome to the 2021 results call from Kingspan. We'll head straight into us, if you don't mind, on Slide #3, which is titled 2021 in summary. So we had a very strong year. Revenue grew by 42%, which resulted in a trading profit growth of almost 50% and equally an EPS growth of 48%.
So really particularly strong. As we had indicated right through the year, there was really a period of very unprecedented raw material inflation, dramatic on all fronts. In Kingspan's case, obviously, steel and chemicals are the primary materials that we buy, and we experienced increases that we've never experienced before.
So naturally, there was an awful lot of pressure on our teams around the world to try and recover that.
