Data center and industrial schedules don’t stop for weather or dust. When they slip, costs climb and turnovers slide.
Flexiscreen® from Westgate Global seals critical work to 99%+, internally hung so pours, finish-out and phased turnovers stay on schedule.
A quick look at how Flexiscreen® helps builds keep moving – no matter what.
Weather and dust protection gets treated as a cheap, temporary line item. On a mission-critical build, that's exactly where a small saving turns into a big delay.
| Flexiscreen® | Tarps / poly sheeting | Drywall partitions |
|---|---|---|
| Engineered to site-specific wind speeds | Tears and blows down in wind speeds higher then 35 - 45mph | Warps and fails once exposed to moisture - an interior barrier, not an envelope- and not wind rated |
| ISO 7 cleanroom grade weather- and dust-tight seal- restricted air movement to maintain heat | Gaps and loose seams leak dust, heat and weather | At a premium cost, it contains dust between zones but doesn't seal out weather |
| Relocate, reconfigure and quick to reuse across multiple phases and turnovers | Constant re-taping and maintenance; effectively single-use as it doesn’t transfer | Fixed in place and can’t be relocated - slow build and demolish (and generates dust) for every change |
| Suspended from the inside of the steelwork- allowing precast / cladding to be installed as usual from the outside | Uses tape- which becomes loose and ineffective over time as it is exposed to dust and wind | Studs and drywall consume usable floor space and fixing may damage fireproof coating |
Different roles worry about different failures. Which pressures land on you?
Three pressure points
– Treating weather and dust protection as “temporary”
– Taking performance on trust, with no evidence
– Leaving accountability unclear when scrutiny hitss
Three quick wins
– Map what breaks if protection fails – and who owns the fallout
– Ask for proof of weather- and dust-tight performance, not reassurance
– Insist on one accountable owner across design, engineering, install and assurance
Flexiscreen®
Three pressure points
– Underestimating how fast disruption spreads across parallel work
– Losing pours and interior work to bad conditions
– Protection that can’t flex when sequencing changes
Three quick wins
– Identify the workstreams that must stay parallel – protect those first
– Stress-test it: what happens if conditions turn for a week?
– Choose protection that moves with your sequence and your handover phases
Flexiscreen®
Three pressure points
– Protection that creates bottlenecks and blocks movement
– “Temporary” setups that need constant fixing
– Losing usable floor space you can’t spare
Three quick wins
– Build logistics flow into the protection plan from day one
– Pressure-test how the enclosure affects every workstream
– Keep protection modular so it shifts with phased works – and phased handovers
