What are Temporary Containment Solutions?
[edit] Introduction
Shutting down operations during a construction process can be expensive. Installing applicable temporary constraint systems before construction begins can allow you to continue to operate your business with minimum interruptions.
Temporary constraint systems can be employed for restoration and remediation systems in addition to full construction systems, enabling day-to-day operations to safely continue.
In healthcare systems, temporary walls, doors and accessories must inspire confidence against infection, and that the system will exclude the dust and pathogens so routine operations may continue without disruption.
[edit] Why are temporary containment solutions important?
Although they have certain benefits such as, looking good, and muffling construction noise, dry-walls can take days to build and must be thrown down after each phase of a design.
Polycarbonate partitions frequently fail to reduce noise pollution, nor are they as stable or durable.
Plastic sheeting, though affordable, doesn't reduce noise, nor are they very durable and cannot be used in any healthcare setting.
Temporary containment solutions offer:
- Easy re-configuration
- Long-lasting
- Easy cleaning
- Less waste
- Long-term value
- Staff and customer safety
- Noise reduction
- Aesthetic quality
- Customisation
