Total Enclosures

Temporary Enclosures for Construction and Facility Protection

When standard dust containment methods are not enough, Total Enclosures create a fully sealed workspace using TuffWrap’s advanced temporary containment systems.
A Total Enclosure uses SmartSeam® Suspended Cover systems and C.O.R.E. Frameless Walls® to create a temporary enclosure that keeps construction separate from the rest of the facility. By sealing the workspace on all sides, these enclosures stop dust, debris, and airborne contaminants from spreading into occupied areas.
These temporary enclosures are a good choice for facilities that need to stay open during renovation, maintenance, or installation. Industries like food processing, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, and distribution use sealed containment systems to keep operations safe, compliant, and running smoothly.
TuffWrap combines suspended ceiling containment with flexible temporary walls to build strong enclosures that protect your facility and let you keep working safely.

What Is a Total Enclosure?

A Total Enclosure is a fully sealed temporary structure made by combining suspended dust containment systems with temporary wall barriers. This setup creates a controlled workspace and keeps contamination from spreading to other areas.
Temporary enclosures go beyond basic dust barriers by sealing the ceiling, walls, and any openings around the work area, providing complete separation.
This approach is often required in environments where even small amounts of dust or debris could cause:
  • Product contamination
  • Production shutdowns
  • Equipment damage
  • Safety hazards
  • Regulatory compliance issues
Total Enclosures provides a reliable way to protect your facility and critical work areas during construction.

Benefits of Total Temporary Enclosures

Total Enclosures has several benefits compared to traditional construction barriers.
  • Complete Dust and Contamination Control
    Temporary enclosures seal off the work area completely, so dust and debris stay inside and do not spread.
  • Continuous Facility Operations
    Facilities can keep running safely while construction, installation, or maintenance happens inside the enclosure.
  • Flexible Installation
    These systems can be set up around equipment, production areas, hallways, or even whole sections of a facility.
  • Durable Containment Materials
    TuffWrap’s reinforced polyethylene is antimicrobial, anti-static, and flame-resistant, making it suitable for tough environments.
  • Code-Compliant Systems
    SmartSeam® Suspended Cover systems meet all required safety and compliance standards for temporary construction containment.

Total Enclosures are just one solution in our lineup of construction containment systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why Use Temporary Enclosures Instead of Basic Dust Barriers?
Standard plastic barriers or shrink-wrap containment usually offer limited protection in complex or high-risk settings.
Temporary enclosures offer better containment because they:
  • Seal both vertical and overhead spaces
  • Prevent dust migration through ceilings or structural openings
  • Provide stronger, more durable containment systems
  • Maintain a professional appearance during construction
  • Allow work to proceed safely inside a controlled environment
For facilities that need the highest level of dust control and uninterrupted operations, Total Enclosures are a dependable solution.
Total Enclosures are often used in industries where contamination or interruptions are not acceptable.
