Scaffold Shrink-wrap Cladding

SGB's shrink-wrap scaffold cladding encapsulates any shape in a way no traditional cladding material can match.  It is safer and more protective against the elements.  It is only avaible for contract installation or purchase from SGB.

Made from a polyethylene shrink-wrap material, it is heat-applied to the scaffold structure and forms a rigid bonded cladding façade.  It looks smarter than conventional cladding because it is moulded more closely to the structure it contains.  This will include any projections or extensions, and even circular or trapezoidal shapes.  The product is fire resistant to BS: 476 Part 7: Class 1. and certified to DIN 4102 B1.

Containment

With conventional individual sheet cladding, it is difficult to contain dust, water, paint, fumes and other pollutants.  The shrink-fitting over the entire scaffold and projections creates a continuous bonded skin that contains all those substances that could give rise to hazards to people or the environment.

More effective weather protection

In 2004 new regulations will require protection from adverse weather conditions for site work at height.  On many sites subject to severe weather conditions, the non-permeable shrink-wrap cladding will provide far more extensive weather protection than has been known to date.

Less Hazards

Detachment of traditional cladding sheets can be a common occurrence, whether caused by severe weather conditions, age and UV degradation, or poor fixing.  This can create hazards if not dealt with promptly.  EnviroWrap forms a heat-bonded cladding skin that is more resistant to damage, more resilient, and will stay in place for extended periods of time without degradation.  Should the shrink-wrap be damaged or punctured by site activity, it can be repaired with a local 'patch¹, without any larger area of degradation.
