Project Case Study - Controlling the combustible insulation risk during construction

Date Posted: 6 February 2026

Lindner Prater Ltd worked with NFRC to showcase how XPS insulation was installed safely during the redevelopment of a 16‑storey mixed‑use building, demonstrating strong fire‑risk management in a dense urban environment.

NFRC Member Lindner Prater Ltd invited NFRC to create a case study on redeveloping a 16-storey mixed-use building and installing XPS insulation safely within an inverted warm roof system. This case study demonstrates how construction-phase fire risks posed by combustible insulation were effectively managed in a dense urban setting through meticulous planning, just-in-time delivery, controlled storage, early encapsulation, and robust site fire safety measures. It sets a benchmark for best practice in high-risk roofing projects.
