Warning against combustible insulation ban

The UK's biggest manufacturer of plastic foam insulation is opposing plans by the government to ban combustible products from new tower blocks.A government consultation has begun on banning combustible cladding systems from new high rise flats after what ministers describe as an "unlawful" combination of products on Grenfell Tower helped spread a fire in June 2017 which killed 72 people.Housing secretary James Brokenshire said a ban would help "concerned residents" and the construction industry.
