Panels designed to improve energy efficiency were fitted to the block in a £9million refurb completed in May last year, ordered by the firm that manages the tower.
But they were filled with foam insulation/cladding that “went up like matchsticks” in the blaze.
The question is to the management company if the allegations are correct how the material for insulation foam was selected and approved?
Another question are they in the UK obligated to have the approval of Chartered Building Engineer or a Chartered Engineer or "Safety Engineer" in the materials selection and use? If the foam or the cladding was illegal to use in the UK then who is responsible for the selection of it for this building?
And experts say the cladding now covers thousands of homes and offices across Britain. which means if that cladding complies with building regulations, there’s something wrong with the building regulations
BTW it's hard to believe that fridge exploded. I wonder if the investigation will uncover that something else caused the fire in that flat.
