How Encapsulation Keeps Your Project Moving in Winter

How Encapsulation Keeps Your Project Moving in Winter

An Auckland winter can cost you weeks of lost working days. Encapsulation — wrapping the scaffold in heavy-duty shrink-wrap sheeting — keeps the weather out and the work going.

A dry, enclosed workspace

Once wrapped, the area beneath stays dry and sheltered. Painting, plastering and repairs can continue through rain and wind that would otherwise send everyone home.

Contains dust and debris

For abrasive blasting, recladding or paint removal, encapsulation also keeps dust and debris on site rather than drifting onto neighbouring properties.

If weather delays are threatening your programme, ask us whether encapsulation makes sense for your project.
