    Injectaclad’s first post-acquisition order: fire safety and retrofit notes for engineers

    Injectaclad’s first post-acquisition order: fire safety and retrofit notes for engineers

    First reported on The Construction Index

    30 Second Briefing

    Injectaclad has secured its first post-acquisition order following Light Science Technology Holdings’ April purchase of manufacturer RLUK Injection Ltd, supplying about £0.41m of its fire-resistant graphite barrier system to a five-storey residential block in East Yorkshire. The 19-week project, starting in early May 2026, will use Injectaclad to reinstate missing or damaged passive fire protection without full façade removal. LSTH now operates as both installer and supplier, leveraging a network of 11 approved installers and increasing specification in building safety regulator applications.

    Technical Brief

    • RLUK Injection Ltd, the system’s manufacturer, is now owned by Light Science Technology Holdings (LSTH).
    • Material is being supplied to one of 11 approved Injectaclad installers operating within LSTH’s network.
    • Installation is targeted over a 19-week window, implying phased access and sequencing around occupied residential units.
    • Use of an injectable PFP system avoids full façade strip-out, reducing structural disturbance and temporary works requirements.
    • Growing inclusion of Injectaclad in building safety regulator applications indicates formal acceptance of the system’s compliance role.
    • For other high-rise remediation schemes, similar injection-based PFP reinstatement could materially cut capex versus full façade replacement.

    Our Take

    The reference to 11 installers in the Injectaclad network signals that scaling beyond East Yorkshire will likely hinge on expanding approved applicators; in our coverage of other fire safety products, limited installer capacity has often been the bottleneck to capturing post-Grenfell remediation demand in the United Kingdom.

    National Grid TBM under the Thames: tunnelling design and risk notes for engineers

    A 271.5‑tonne Herrenknecht Mixshield TBM, Caroline, has started driving a 2.2km electricity cable tunnel with a 4m internal diameter beneath the River Thames in Essex for National Grid’s Grain to Tilbury project, delivered by the Ferrovial BEMO joint venture. The drive will pass through variable Thames estuary ground conditions between 35m‑deep launch and reception shafts of 15m and 12m diameter, with tunnelling continuing into 2026 and overall scheme completion targeted for 2029. The new tunnel will replace the 1969 Thames Cable Tunnel and carry new high‑voltage circuits between Grain and Tilbury substations.

    Panama Canal Mixshield undercrossing: design and tunnelling lessons for engineers

    A 13.46m diameter Herrenknecht Mixshield TBM has broken through into the future Balboa station on Panama Metro Line 3 after completing the first-ever TBM undercrossing of the Panama Canal at depths exceeding 60m below sea level. The 5,600kW, 26,616kNm machine, fitted with an accessible cutterhead and more than 4,500 sensors linked via the Herrenknecht.Connected platform, has achieved peak advance of 150 segment rings (about 300m) per month through mixed sandstone, tuff, breccias and basalt. Around 1.5km of the 4.5km twin-track tunnel remains to final breakthrough.

    Hudson Tunnel funding deadline: schedule and risk takeaways for project teams

    Federal funding for New York’s US$16bn Hudson Tunnel Project has been frozen, forcing the Gateway Development Commission to suspend works from 6 February after spending over US$1bn and employing about 1,000 site workers. A Manhattan federal judge has issued a temporary restraining order, giving the administration until 5 p.m. on 12 February to restore reimbursements or appeal, while contractors warn that demobilisation, resequencing and remobilisation will add cost and delay. Sites are now in “safe-pause” mode, with dewatering, ground support and environmental monitoring maintained, and assembly of two Herrenknecht TBMs in New Jersey likely to slip beyond the planned spring 2026 launch without funding certainty.
