Apart from aesthetic purposes, wall cladding panels have to be safe. Did you know that composite panels used for external wall cladding have to be either Class 0 combustible or non-combustible?

Fire is a real high-risk hazard and safety is our utmost priority given that the buildings covered by our projects are usually housing a sizeable population. The last thing anyone needs in the event of a fire is combustible cladding. No one wants a repeat of the incident at 30 Toh Guan Road in May 2017 or another Grenfell Tower catastrophe (both of which had alleged use of combustible cladding), which is why Lee Wall Cladding & Roofing Pte Ltd takes extra care when selecting cladding material.

Lee Wall Cladding & Roofing Pte Ltd adheres strictly to the safety standards, that is expected of a company with multiple past projects involving power plants home and abroad!
