WELCOMEFor many years, scaffolders and contractors have struggled to find a sheeting system that gives both temporary weather protection & containment to an acceptable level. Sheeting has always proved to be a bit ‘hit and miss’ with even the best products falling short of giving full protection and easily damaged by bad weather.
Rhino supply and install a robust ‘shrink-to-fit’ sheeting system which we engineer for thetoughest construction projects.
Scaffold shrink wrapping is a specialised trade. I hope the advice and resources we provide will help you to make the right decision regarding encapsulation & containment on your next project.
Best regards,
Steve Irlam, MD,Rhino Shrink Wrap

Preventing Weather DelaysBad weather can be a headache for project managers. Whether paying workers whilst they are waiting for the next ‘weather window’ orfinancial penalties for missing deadlines, delays are costly.
Conventional sheeting is typically attached to the scaffolding usingelasticated bungee cords. This method is acceptable for short term,low risk projects but over time traditional products tend to become loose and may even detach altogether.
At Rhino we supply & install a fully recyclable shrink wrap sheeting system which creates a ‘drum tight’ wrap around scaffolds of any size or shape. Contractors who are concerned about avoiding delays use Rhino shrink wrap because it creates 100% encapsulation and full weather protection which will not flap and detach, even in the harshest of weather conditions.
Shrink wrap is heat shrunk ‘drum tight’so that it wraps very tightly around thescaffolding, which prevents flapping anddetachment.

Protecting Local EnvironmentsFor many projects, the containment of dust and debris is vital.Whether shot blasting & painting or works in public areas, theconsequences of a failure in the containment sheeting can includeclean up costs, fines and damage to reputation.
‘Traditional’ sheeting for containment is usually installed in 2-3m wide strips which are overlapped ‘lift by lift’ around the scaffolding and attached using bungees. This allows dust and smaller debris to escape between overlaps and the containment can be compromised altogether if the sheeting detaches.
With Rhino shrink wrap cladding, joins are created by overlapping sheets and heat welding them together. This heat seal method creates a ‘continuously bonded skin’ around any size or shape scaffolding and gives peace of mind that the project will remain fully encapsulated throughout the duration of the works.

Minimising Community ImpactsContractors are ever mindful of the need to minimize the impact ofconstruction activities on the local community. Often, building works may need to be screened from local residents whilst maintaining a smart & professional appearance to the work site.
Conventional ‘individual sheet’ scaffold cladding may be sufficient for short term projects but tends to flap and may even detach altogether when used longer term. Full graphic ‘building wraps’ provide anextremely attractive covering but can be costly and does not provide much weather protection or containment.
Because shrink wrap is heat shrunk ‘drum tight’, with heat sealed joints between sheets, it creates a smart & professional cladding that moulds very tightly around the scaffolding. This means that it will not flapnoisily or look unsightly, even on long term projects.
Shrink wrap sheeting provides a smart yet cost effective alternative to conventional scaffold sheeting and full graphic building wraps.

SCAFFOLD SHRINK WRAP TRAININGMany companies prefer to carry out the installation of shrink wrap sheeting using ‘in house’ labour. Apart from providing a more robust alternative to traditional weather protection and containment sheeting products, the smart and professional appearance of shrink wrap sheeting is a good way to promote and differentiate yourcompany from competitors.
Our shrink wrap training sessions are carried out by the mostexperienced members of our installation teams, typically supervisors. This means your team receive training in the practical real world skills they need, not just theory. Training can be arranged for groups of any size and at any location.
Upon successful completion of a practical shrink wrapping assessment and a multiple choice written test, participants receive a certificate of completion as evidence of their competency.
Once the scaffold shrink wrap training session has been completed we are happy work alongside your teams on your first or second shrink wrap encapsulation job to ensure that the shrink wrapping skills and competencies become second nature to your team.
Our shrink wrap training sessions are carried out by the most experienced members of our installation teams. This means your teamreceive training in practical ‘real world’ skills, not just theory.

WHY USE SHRINK WRAP SHEETING FOR SCAFFOLDS?
LOW MAINTENANCE
Because scaffold shrink wrapis shrunk tightly around the scaffolding it creates anextremely robust claddingthat does not flap or ‘selfdestruct’ in high winds.This means less going backto repair detached sheeting.
SMART & PROFESSIONAL
The ‘drum tight’ finish of Rhino shrink wrap sheeting, creates a ‘continuously bonded skin’ over and around anything it covers which creates a very smart and professional appearance.
VERSATILE
Ideal for creating effective environmental containment or weather protection. Shrink wrap is particularly good at adapting to awkward shapes as it can be cut and heat welded ‘in situ’.
WHY CHOOSE RHINO SHRINK WRAP?

SAFE
Certified flame retardant to EN13501 and approved by the Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB) as LPS1207 / LPS1215 certified scaffoldcladding. Engineered for tensile strength and impact tolerance to withstand high wind loading without detaching.
RELIABLE
All shrink wrap encapsulation and containment carried outby Rhino Shrink Wraptechnicians is guaranteed for6 months. Ultra Violet Inhibitor and EVA additives ensure long term reliability in any climate. 100% recyclable, to minimiseenvironmental impacts.
SCAFFOLD WRAPPINGUsing shrink wrap scaffold sheeting creates a long lasting ‘continuously bonded skin’ around a construction project.
The benefits of using shrink to fit scaffold cladding;
Robust – Because scaffold shrink wrap is shrunk ‘drum tight’ it does not flap or ‘self destruct’ in high winds. Because bungee cords are not used to attach shrink wrap sheeting to the scaffolding, it does not become loose and saggy over time.
Effective - Welded joints between individual sheets of shrink wrap scaffold sheeting create highly effective weather protection.
Versatile - Because it is a shrink to fit solution, which is cut and welded‘in situ’ there is no restriction on the size and shape of the scaffolding structure which can be covered.
100% Recyclable – Shrink wrap is a use once and recycle product.

BLAST CONTAINMENTA common application for shrink wrap sheeting is the full encapsulationof bridges and other industrial structures to completely contain hazardous residues during shot blasting and painting operations.
Fully encapsulating a work zone, also allows our customers to create atemperature controlled and humidity controlled environment.
The benefits of using shrink wrap for full encapsulation and containment are;
Effective – Because individual sheets of shrink wrap are joined by heat welding them together, this creates a sealed internal environment.This means there are no holes or gaps which can occur with tarpaulinsor conventional scaffold cladding, resulting in 100% encapsulation andcontainment.
Robust – Because shrink wrap does not require bungee cords to attachit to the scaffolding structure and because it is heat shrunk tightly aroundthe scaffolding structure it will not detach in high winds and allow thecontainment to be breached.
Versatile – Because shrink wrap sheeting is easily cut and heat welded ‘in-situ’, it is particularly suited to the most challenging of containmentprojects.

INTERNAL PARTITIONSProjects such as repairs to machinery, extensions and refits can create a lot of dust and debris. Rhino temporary partitions and screens separate the work environment from the construction zone, containing dust and debris, and creating a smart & professional appearance.
The versatility of our temporary partitions and screens enables them to be utilised in a variety of facilities such as commercial, retail and industrial.
The benefits of shrink wrapped internal partitions are;
Reduce Risk - When utilised in commercial and retail environments,customers feel safe and valuable stock is protected. When temporarypartitions are erected in industrial facilities, costly risks associated with product contamination and recalls are eliminated.
Custom - By customising your temporary factory partition with access doors, Rhino’s temporary partitions not only protect against dust anddebris, but also helps maintain normal work routines.
Smart & professional – The drum tight finish of Rhino scaffold shrink wrap sheeting, which is shrunk tight around the scaffold structure can look much more professional than traditional solutions, (especially if thescaffolding structure has been built with scaffold wrapping in mind).
