Delays in construction, fit out and refurbishment projects can be costly, causing financial strain, logistical challenges, and reputational damage. Meeting fire safety regulations is a critical requirement, but it often leads to project slowdowns—especially when compliance solutions are not factored in from the start.
In construction and retail fit-outs, fire safety isn’t just a priority—it’s a legal requirement. Whether installing temporary screens in construction zones or setting up shop front hoarding in a shopping centre, ensuring compliance with fire safety regulations is critical.
When selecting a temporary building screen solution, project managers must consider cost, effectiveness, security, and durability. Traditional methods such as scaffold sheeting, polythene sheeting, plywood hoarding, tarpaulin covers and modular panel systems have been widely used, but Flexiscreen offers a superior alternative.
For warehouse managers and operators, maintaining optimal temperature control is critical. Whether you’re storing sensitive products or simply trying to manage energy costs, it’s not always straightforward. Thankfully, industrial curtains offer an efficient, cost-effective solution to many common warehouse challenges. Here’s how they can make a real difference in your operations.
The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has launched a targeted inspection initiative focusing on silica risks in the manufacturing sector. This follows a recent assessment of dust control compliance in the construction industry, which revealed concerning gaps in safety measures. As part of this initiative, inspectors will evaluate whether businesses understand the risks of silica exposure and have effective control measures in place to protect workers’ respiratory health.
Westgate Global’s Hoardfast and Hoardfence solutions played a crucial role in a Manchester fit-out project for TSK Group, ensuring site security, safety, and efficiency. Hoardfence secured the outdoor compound, Hoardfast Firescreen segregated live office areas, and Hoardfast uPVC created hygienic welfare spaces. The modular systems enabled quick installation, minimising disruption while maintaining high safety and sustainability standards.
Westgate Global’s temporary hot aisle containment system is a robust, reusable solution for accurate heat load testing during data centre commissioning. Designed to emulate permanent hot aisle setups, it ensures optimal airflow management, accelerates commissioning timelines, and delivers reliable thermal performance data—all without damaging whitespace or creating unnecessary waste.
Westgate Global’s Flexiscreen is a high-performance temporary weathering solution engineered for data centre construction. Designed to ensure precise environmental control, Flexiscreen protects interiors from weather during critical early construction phases, such as slab pouring, while supporting project timelines, sustainability, and quality standards. Its durable, reusable, and relocatable design makes it ideal for mission-critical projects.
Westgate Global provided a trusted data centre partner with a durable and reusable temporary aisle emulation system for heat load testing. Designed to prevent collapses and reduce maintenance time, this pre-manufactured solution ensures reliable testing. Easy to install and relocate, it was successfully transported from Germany to Spain, offering consistent performance across multiple sites.
Westgate Global partnered with Winthrop Technologies to deliver a bespoke temporary hot aisle containment (HAC) solution for data centre commissioning. Using reinforced PVC panels, Westgate’s system accelerated commissioning timelines, ensured precise airflow control, and protected whitespace from damage. Reusable across multiple projects, this innovative solution reduces waste and enhances efficiency in heat load testing.
