Recladding with Fairview Architectural: The Issue & The Resolution

Centenary Hospital for Women and Children (CHWC).

Following the occurrence of several building fires around the world caused by the use of non-compliant building materials recladding is a major issue currently facing the construction industry. It is estimated that thousands of square metres of non-compliant cladding may need to be replaced on commercial buildings throughout Australia and authorities across the country are carrying out audits to identify buildings at risk.

Fairview are at the forefront of providing advice, expertise and solutions to building owners, architects, engineers, builders and other industry professionals who are navigating their way through this issue, as a leading provider of safe façade cladding products.

Fairview's Vitracore G2, has been chosen to replace non-compliant cladding on the Centenary Hospital for Women and Children (CHWC) with work on this project starting last week. The deemed non-combustible product will also be used to reclad façade material on projects including: Queanbeyan Hospital (3,900m²), Armidale Hospital (950m²) and Lindsay Street Apartments in Neutral Bay.
