EXTERIOR WALLS

Exterior Walls extend the construction season and reduce downtime due to weather. TuffWrap® EXT temporary exterior walls are a 7-ply, double scrim reinforced polyethylene that effectively protects Exterior Enclosures without scaffolding. EXT’s resilient design and installation process ensures superior exterior wall protection during unexpected conditions. Using temporary weather barriers during new construction or an expansion project will keep the job on track. TuffWrap® EXT is scaleable to any job, just like other dust and debris containment solutions designed and installed by TuffWrap®.

TUFFWRAP® EXT EXTENDS THE CONSTRUCTION SEASON AND REDUCES WEATHER DOWNTIME

Save time and money by reducing downtime between the phases of construction and eliminating weather interruptions — without the need for scaffolding. TuffWrap® EXT can withstand steady wind of up to 30 miles per hour and brief gusts of up to 45 miles per hour. This Exterior Wall Protection system protects work crews with a safe interior work environment against harsh weather with a weather-resistant enclosure. The seven-layer polyethylene material provides the highest puncture resistance and tear strength for an exterior wall. If an accidental puncture occurs, the diagonal and perpendicular scrim orientation resists tearing and continues to provide protection.

Covering large openings and spans, requires specialized installation. Each TuffWrap® EXT exterior wall protection job is custom engineered to fit the project requirements. Custom mounting hardware, designed and manufactured by TuffWrap, allows EXT to be installed almost anywhere, even for projects above 50 feet high. EXT, an engineered seven-ply polyethylene, is flame and UV-resistant. Its innovative diagonal and perpendicular scrim design make EXT the right choice to keep your projects on schedule and protected from foul weather.
