Key Differences of Industry Specific Hoarding

What is hoarding?

Hoarding systems are used in most industries where the need to form perimeter barriers to prevent unauthorised access or viewing is crucial. In most cases, hoarding is temporary but is a solid structure in itself that can withstand harsh wind and vandalism.

At Plasloc, we specialise in constructing bespoke, environmentally friendly Hoarding systems made from 100% post-consumer or post-recycled uPVC. They’re easy to set up, remove and provide a multitude of uses making them ideal for temporary solutions.

Struggling to find a way to incorporate our hoarding systems into your project? Keep reading to find specific uses and benefits no matter the industry.

Hoarding for construction sites

If you’re in the construction industry, you‘ll know how important it is to keep intruders off-site for security and public safety reasons. You don’t want tools and equipment being stolen or tampered with and you don’t want members of the general public entering unsafe zones and potentially injuring themselves either.

Plasloc provides the perfect solution to this very problem with a range of innovative scaffold hoarding solutions. Preventing any unwanted lawsuits of potential fallen objects injuring people or trip hazards, our hoarding products keep people from entering but also from the prying eye looking in; opportunists won’t be able to assess what is on-site if they can’t see through.  Furthermore, typical hoarding material cannot withstand harsh weather conditions and there is a risk of it falling; our hoarding solutions are built from highly durable post-industrial uPVC. With each site having a site-specific structural engineer’s calculation, there’s no need to worry.

Hoarding for hospitals & healthcare facilities

Hoarding is crucial within the medical industry, now more so than ever with the ongoing pandemic. uPVC resists dirt accumulation incredibly well, making it the ideal material for medical environments and  COVID safety screens. uPVC is conveniently low maintenance too, only requiring the occasional wipe down with warm soapy water every now and then. uPVC has a variety of uses, from setting up COVID screens, sectioning off staff to create less busy areas in canteens, and even creating temporary rooms for those with COVID to be separated.

A recent venture with contractors in London saw the use of Plasloc’s demo wall system to create a tunnel for staff to move safely around the building whilst construction took place around their office.
