The final wall cladding combination has passed and meets current Building Regulations guidance.
This final test was of a wall cladding system consisting of Aluminium Composite material (ACM) cladding with a limited combustibility filler (category 1 in screening tests) with stone wall insulation.
The government’s expert panel says this combination of materials can be compliant when installed and maintained properly. While government has not been informed of any tall buildings over 18 metres in England using this particular combination in their wall system, it could offer a possible solution for some buildings with other systems which have been identified as hazardous.
The advice from the panel remains that building owners need to continue to take professional advice regarding remedial work that takes into account the specific circumstances of their building.
