Airport hoarding and screening for construction, refurbishment and fit out projects
Westgate Global specialises in providing comprehensive hoarding and screening solutions tailored for airport environments. Our products are designed to facilitate airside and landside construction, refurbishment, and fit-out projects while ensuring minimal disruption to airport operations. By collaborating closely with airports and contractors, we deliver systems that prioritise safety, efficiency, and passenger experience. We also work closely with Crossley Consult to ensure ASIAD compliance.
Internal hoarding for airports
Internal hoarding for airports
Our temporary airport hoarding shields passengers and employees from ongoing work by containing dust, reducing noise and creating new areas. Our systems offer quick installation, and a range of fire-ratings, support and stability options. Adding graphics can inform or instruct passengers, and help the system to blend seamlessly into the airport environment to maintain passenger experience and passenger flow.
Hoardfast uPVC: A quick-to-install, modular internal screening system used during fit-out and renovation projects. Ideal in low footfall areas.
Hoardfast Firescreen: A 60-minute fire-rated (EI60) hoarding panel designed for construction sites, providing enhanced safety within airport environments. Ideal in areas where strength and robustness is critical or a floor to ceiling barrier is required.
Hoardfast Soundscreen: A perforated internal hoarding system that aids in sound reduction, providing an average of 34dB sound reduction, essential for maintaining a comfortable atmosphere in operational areas. The panel’s non-combustibility also makes it a popular choice.
Crowd load calculations are possible for all panel types.

Key benefits
- Rapid Installation: Modular design ensures swift setup, reducing downtime in high-traffic areas. The minimal impact on day-to-day airport operations helps maintain passenger flow.
- Enhanced Safety: Create airside/landside segregation to ensure security is maintained during construction works. Fire-rated options like Hoardfast Firescreen provide critical protection during construction phases.
- Noise Mitigation: Hoardfast Soundscreen effectively minimises construction noise, preserving the airport ambiance.
FAQs
How quickly can Hoardfast panels be installed in an airport setting?
Hoardfast panels are designed for rapid installation, allowing for quick deployment in dynamic airport environments.
Are the Hoardfast systems customisable to fit different airport layouts?
Yes, the modular nature of Hoardfast, and our range of optional extras such as doors and vision panels, allows for customisation to accommodate various spatial configurations.
Do the sound reduction panels meet specific acoustic requirements for airports?
Hoardfast Soundscreen provides an average of 34dB sound reduction, effectively addressing common airport acoustic challenges. This panel is also non-combustible and ideal where a full 60-minute fire rating is not required.
External hoarding for airports
For external applications, we offer robust solutions to create secure compounds for works areas and on site storage, define site boundaries, or offer weather protection to keep projects on track:
Hoardfence: A relocatable and reusable external site hoarding solution. Quick and easy to install, it is free-standing, consisting of a Hoardfast panel with modular support framing and concrete ballast block weight. Metal-faced panels have a smooth finish and no joining panel, ideal for seamless graphic application.
Weatherproof Hoarding: Hoardfast Firescreen & Flamescreen are Westgate Global’s steel-faced fire-resistant and flame-retardant hoarding systems. Both can be used externally as weathering panels in window apertures or floor-to-ceiling on an uncladded building during construction to seal an incomplete building envelope.

Key benefits
- Public Safety: Defines clear boundaries, protecting passengers and staff from construction zones.
- Durability: Engineered to withstand external environmental factors, ensuring longevity throughout the project duration.
- Reusability: Modular components allow for easy relocation and reuse, offering cost-effective solutions for multiple projects.
FAQs
How does Hoardfence ensure stability without permanent fixtures?
Hoardfence utilises modular support framing and concrete ballast blocks to maintain stability without the need for permanent ground fixtures.
Are the external hoarding systems customisable for branding purposes?
Yes, panels can be customised with graphics to align with airport branding or provide informational signage.
What maintenance is required for external hoarding systems?
Minimal maintenance is needed; regular inspections ensure integrity, and the durable materials resist common environmental wear and tear.

Temporary weathering and dust protection screen
Temporary weathering and dust protection screen
Flexiscreen is our premium temporary construction screen with an effective weather and dust-tight seal. Ideal for both short and long-term airport projects such as extensions and hangar door replacements, it is designed to ensure build and refurbishment programmes can continue in adverse weather conditions. The flexible screen can be fixed to the envelope of an airport building or facility to protect the project programme or operational assets in a live environment.
The screen can also be used internally to enable early fit out works to commence by segregating and protecting live operational areas from dust spread. Able to fit any height, shape and width of the building, the weathering screen and dust control partitions are relocatable, enabling reuse multiple times during airport programme phases.

Key benefits
- Superior Dust Containment: Provides a 99% dust-tight seal, crucial for maintaining operational areas during ongoing works reducing the risk of environmental contamination.
- Weather Resistance: Engineered and structurally calculated to withstand severe weather conditions, protecting interior areas and workers from external elements.
- Flexible Installation: Quick and clean to install, Flexiscreen can be manufactured to any shape, height and width, ideal for tall/large airport facilities undergoing works.
FAQs
How does Flexiscreen compare to traditional scaffold sheeting?
Flexiscreen is robust and structurally engineered solution, with a more effective weather and dust-tight seal than traditional methods. Hung from the building framework, the screen requires millimetres of space compared to scaffold.
Can Flexiscreen be reused for multiple projects within the airport?
Yes, Flexiscreen’s durable design allows for demount and reuse across project phases, and can also be adapted for reuse across different projects, promoting sustainability.
What are the temperature tolerances of Flexiscreen?
Flexiscreen maintains performance across a wide range of temperatures, suitable for various climates. View Flexiscreen technical specifications.
