To create Marand’s welding area Flexshield supplied all the steelwork, the Weldflex^TM strip and sheet curtains, motors, and track. The only part of the welding bay project not arranged by Flexshield for this project was the electricals, as the client organised this component themselves. When working on larger projects, Flexshield will arrange all trades including electrical.

The Flexshield team determined that the ideal solution for Marand was a combination of our Weldflex^TM sheet and strip curtains. The Weldflex^TM sheet was used to create automatic welding screens, and the Weldflex^TM strip to create personnel access to each area.

The large Weldflex^TM sheet curtain component of the welding bay opens automatically and closes with the press of a single button. When the screen is closed, the Weldflex^TM strip at the end of each bay allows easy personnel access.

The Flexshield products used: Weldflex^TM sheets and Weldflex^TM strip curtains

Why did the Flexshield team use both Weldflex^TM sheets and strip curtains? Weldflex^TM sheet curtains are one piece of 1 mm Weldflex^TM, whereas strip curtains are 2 mm thick PVC and cut to your desired width and length. Weldflex^TM strip curtains remove the human element of needing to remember to close the door or shut the screen – they fall back into place after personnel move through them.

Both products have a ten-year manufacturer’s warranty, have Kanga certification, and conform to AS/NZ 3957:2014.
