  • If the manufacturer,
    http://omnisexteriors.com/
    had only the one grade of ACM,
    thay could possibly claim that they merely 'suppiled' a requested material.

    However,
    http://omnisexteriors.com/roofing-and-cladding/metal-facade-systems/acm/
    shows they offer three grades,
    PE, FR and Mineral Core,
    clearly indicating that the PE is only suitable for the applications where flammability is not the deciding factor.

    Every manufacturer has a 'Duty of Care' to ensure the material they offer for sale is 'Fit for Purpose'. The 'PE' grade should never have been sold for the Grenfell Tower refurb project.

  • In the "which bastards are culpable" stakes here, I think the manufacturers are a long way down the list.

    There are far more culpable people to focus your ire on.
