The rapid spread of the fire has been linked to the flammable cladding material used on the building's exterior walls.The fire's speed has been compared to the 25 November 2014 fire at Melbourne's Lacrosse Tower, which reportedly used the same external cladding, being a flammable aluminium composite cladding.
