Shrink Wrap Scaffolding

WHY SHRINK WRAP SCAFFOLDING?

TEMPORARY WEATHER PROTECTION  SCAFFOLD SHRINK WRAP 

High winds, snow, sleet and ice work against the critical path of a project in the northern states, while the southern states face heavy rains and winds where mold is the enemy. This doesn’t only impact the integrity of the scaffold set up, but the building being constructed, renovated or repaired. When Global Wrap invented the shrink wrapping of scaffolding back in 1984, it eliminated the use of tarps that blew open in the wind.  

Global Wrap 12mil shrink film is an effective and reliable solution for covering scaffolding; it withstands high winds and keeps the containment tight against the scaffold frames.  Global Wrap keeps the trades working.

SHRINK WRAP FOR LEAD AND ASBESTOS ABATEMENTS

Shrink wrapping scaffolding protects the environment against contaminated dust particles and debris from being released out into the environment.  Global Wrap is seamless and drum tight, unlike tarps with seams that blow open in the wind, Global Wrap has one continuous containment with sealed seams.

GLOBAL WRAP'S SCAFFOLDING SHRINK WRAP

Global Wrap® introduced the system for scaffold shrink wrap. It is drum-tight, fire retardant, seamless and recyclable.  It is the same film Global Wrap uses in the construction industry for temporary building enclosures and weather protection applications. The film is specifically manufactured for Global Wrap, it is a virgin resin, biaxially oriented,12mil, fire retardant film. 

Global Wrap® works with scaffolding companies that understand full containment and the need for stabilizing and protecting their scaffolding against strong winds. Global Wrap is the inventor of shrink-wrapping scaffolding and the leading shrink wrap contractor. After 43 years of developing applications for the construction and environmental industries, Global Wrap® understands high winds and what it takes to overcome them.  With a safety EMR of 0.77, the company also understands the importance of safety, and the need for the PE stamp on the scaffolding. When scaffolding is used for environmental abatements, Global Wrap® provides a True Class I Containment.

Only Global Wrap® can meet all the shrink wrap enclosure needs of contractors and do it safely using the best methods and OSHA trained technicians. We also can provide you with a turnkey quote for the scaffolding.
