Non-combustible cladding systems cost less than foam-filled systems

Latest News Tue, May 7, 2019 9:56 AM

Often heard above the noise of the current state of the envelope cladding debate is that ‘to provide a guaranteed non-combustible alternative to the problematical foam-filled systems would cost that much more as to make a project unviable’.

Well, in the words of Architectural Profiles Limited, “that is absolutely not true”.

With Cladsafe fully non-combustible systems the actual cost of the system materials and installation is usually less than the traditional foam-filled alternatives – then, if one factors in the greatly reduced cost of lower building insurance, the savings can be remarkable.

All APL products and systems provided under the Cladsafe banner are guaranteed non-combustible or fire-retardant.

Thereafter, projects incorporating Cladsafe can seek further comfort through the APL Cladshield 25-year full system warranty which, not only gives the building owner all the right assurances, it also will further contribute to the very best buildings insurance rates.
