Grenfell Tower fire report: Tragedy result of ‘decades of failure’ at hands of government and construction companies

Manufacturers providing cladding and insulation engaged in ‘systematic dishonesty’ and hid the true danger of their products while successive governments failed to act on warnings

The Independent

#Arconic the company which made the cladding panels on the tower’s exterior, are found to have “deliberately concealed” the safety risk; two firms which produced insulation - #Celotex and #Kingspan - were found to have “misled”

"Incompetent” companies involved in the 2011 refurbishment of the tower – #StudioE and #HarleyFacades – are found to bear “significant” responsibility for the disaster, while project manager #Rydon ’s oversight of the work led to a culture of “buck-passing”

#grenfell

#Arconic, the US-owned firm that made the highly combustible #cladding panels, was first among those named by Stephanie Barwise KC, representing one group of survivors, in a “rogues gallery”….

#Celotex, which made most of the combustible insulation used on the tower, and #Kingspan, another manufacturer, were fraudulent in their sales tactics…”
