According to an insurance assessor on the radio this morning nearly every new house that has rendering over the top of a wood frame has this flammable foam insulation muck ! In particular top floors which are not brick will use this muck in the walls. I have seen it myself when they build these houses and town houses. Not only is it cheap and nasty and will crack later on but it's also a ticking time bomb and potential death trap !!

Now here's the clincher. The same chinese company that makes this flammable crap also makes one which has fire retardant built into the foam but guess what ? It costs more !! So all the punters who are paying top dollar for new houses are buying a potential death trap :(

Cheaper cheaper cheaper.......

Apparently the flammable stuff is legal in single story buildings

It's about standards and regulation: you're missing the point of the whole discussion bros!

Health and Safety Laws were some of the most powerful ever put through parliament because they relate to basically every single person.

The world was built on standards- constant improvement of process not stagnation that leads to cowboy behaviour and certain death!!

I couldn't give a fkk about "my mate" and what he sells; but it grubs like you that pretty much destroyed Australians jobs in manufacturing.

You buy chinese sh1t, you deserve what you get you cheap bastard.


You have no right to complain about what anyone else does, when you are part of the problem in the destruction of Australian jobs, ya fkken grub.

WTF are you talking about moreon ?? Just look at all of the sellout punters buying shares in the likes of Bunnings, Harvey Norman, Kogan, JB Hifi, Nic Scali and the rest of the import junkies ! Honestly aussies are so fickle to buy into sh.t companies like that who add no value to anything :(

Don't fricken well tell me about selling out aussie manufacturing jobs mate. I know all about the likes of Harvey Norman etc :( They are the ones that ruined aussie manufacturing by chasing the lowest bidder in asia and now aussies who buy online are just giving them a dose of their own medicine. Poetic justice ;)

I was talking about YOU and your bullsh1t cheap chinese buying habits.

You are just trying to deflect the fact that YOU are a part of the problem, you could have bought Australian but YOU chose not to.

You deserve what you get, including my unending contempt.
