The company’s engineered static screen with high level infills has been installed at the facility site of BAE.
The 85m x 22.5m screen is composed of heavyweight PVC coated polyester, and provides two emergency escape doors, complying with BAE’s health and safety standards.
The screen will shield the manufacturing process from dust contamination owing to an extensive refurbishment programme in one of its manufacturing units.
