As I said way up thread the product sheets I've found for Reynobond ACM (the cladding used on Grenfall) don't even mention its thermal properties:
https://www.arconic.com/aap/north_america/catalog/pdf/brochures/Reynobond_Brochure.pdfI understand it there is some insulation benefit but the main benefit of the product seems to be looking better with no maintenance.
What efficiencies are the "upgrade" of cladding supposed to achieve? Are the heating savings significant, or are these "improvements" motivated more by the aesthetics?
