Unless you have very large quantities, then it is unlikely that a recycling company will pay you for scaffold shrink wrap, however, for a company that values high quality LDPE they may take it for a small administration fee to cover the necessary paperwork.
In order to engineer a shrink wrap film with the mechanical properties and consistency needed for demanding construction applications it is not possible to reuse recycled materials for manufacturing.
Shrink wrap is heat shrunk ‘drum tight’ so that it moulds very tightly around the sides and roof of a scaffolding structure. However, it is not possible to shrink the sheeting twice which means that once it has been removed from the scaffolding it must be collected for recycling.
Ideally 1-2 weeks’ notice is great, but we understand the nature of certain projects means that you may not always have this much notice so we will always try and be flexible to meet your deadlines.
Yes, however electric guns are available but they require three phase electricity supply, are cumbersome to use, cost three times as much and are still only about 1/3 of the power so the job will take much longer.
Our standard warranty for shrink wrap that we install is 25 weeks subject to wind speeds up to and including 47mph.
We work on a 100m2 per man per day for scaffolding encapsulation & containment sheeting.
Welding and shrinking are the two main skills required to carry out almost any scaffold encapsulation and containment job. These skills can be taught in an hour or two. The challenge of shrink wrapping (and also the benefit) is that because it is so versatile – it can be used on the roofs / sides of any shape and any sized scaffold; every project is a little different and ‘custom’. Therefore, it is one of those skills that develops with practice and experience to a variety of projects over time. That is why our trainers are time served members of our own installation teams so they can impart valuable real-life knowledge to your teams and not just the theory.
