More About the Project
Kensington Row History and Grenfell Survivor Rehousing
Completed in 2017, 1 Kensington Row is a £2 billion development by the Berkeley Group in West Kensington, London. It features 15,000m² of HyCOMB’s 6mm stone honeycomb panels – along with our innovative cladding installation system – to form its impressive exterior facade, which incorporates a beautiful beige limestone surface sourced from Portugal. Project officials were particularly happy with the level of fire resistance provided by HyCOMB’s cladding panels, which are BSI approved.
Because of this, the UK government decided to move survivors from the Grenfell Tower Fire into this new building, which used fire-safe Stone Honeycomb Panels to prevent the spread of fire exacerbated by flammable exterior cladding on the building.
