Stop Dust with SmartSeam®

Dust Does Not Belong in Your Facility

Construction dust has a way of multiplying, traveling, and showing up exactly where it should not. That is why TuffWrap® developed SmartSeam® Suspended Cover: a professionally installed temporary ceiling containment system designed to keep dust, debris, and construction activity separated from the people, products, and equipment below.

Meet the Dust Bunny

Unlike the one hiding under your couch, an industrial dust bunny can create much bigger problems.

During reroofing, renovation, maintenance, and overhead construction, dust and debris can fall into active workspaces, production areas, warehouses, and sensitive environments. Once it escapes the construction zone, it can spread quickly and put operations, equipment, inventory, and cleanliness standards at risk.

SmartSeam Keeps the Mess Above the Rest

SmartSeam® does more than create a barrier beneath overhead construction. Its innovative Dust Cap design helps seal and protect the system’s seams, one of the places where fine construction dust may otherwise get through.

By helping limit dust migration at the seams, SmartSeam creates a more complete layer of protection between the work happening overhead and the people, products, equipment, and operations below. That means fewer airborne particles reaching sensitive areas, less cleanup after the work is complete, and fewer interruptions to your facility’s day-to-day operations.

SmartSeam is also engineered with fire safety and code compliance in mind, providing project teams with a containment solution that does not require them to choose between cleanliness and safety.

The result is an overhead containment system designed to help:

  • Capture dust and debris generated during construction
  • Reduce the movement of fine particles through system seams
  • Protect production areas, equipment, inventory, and employees
  • Support active operations during reroofing and overhead work
  • Minimize cleanup, downtime, and construction-related disruption
  • Meet the demands of facilities where cleanliness and fire safety matter

Dust bunnies may be determined, but SmartSeam is designed to keep them from hopping into your operation.
