Flexiscreen is the ideal temporary weather screen solution for ensuring a construction programme’s critical path activities run to time during challenging weather conditions.
Weatherproof Hoarding
Steel faced modular hoarding used externally as protective weathering panels
Our Hoardfast weatherproof hoarding systems combine fire resistance with external weather protection, making them suitable for safeguarding construction and industrial sites.
Hoardfast Firescreen: Featuring steel-faced, mineral wool-filled panels, it provides 30-minute or 60-minute fire resistance while protecting against wind and rain.
Hoardfast Flamescreen: A lightweight yet sturdy alternative, offering flame retardancy and effective weatherproofing.
Modular Design: Interlocking panels allow for easy customisation and quick installation, reducing disruption to ongoing work.
External Use: Both systems are specifically designed to withstand outdoor environments, ensuring site security and protection from the elements. Use floor-to-ceiling on an uncladded building to seal an incomplete building envelope; use as temporary weather screening in window apertures; create a dry area to house internal site offices and employee welfare facilities.
Choose Hoardfast weatherproof hoarding for reliable and multi-functional site barriers.
