Textile firm uses external partitions to seal drive-through area
Westgate was approached by textile manufacturer Don & Low to supply walling that could create a dust and weather tight seal on either side of a drive through area, which was between two production buildings at its site in Forfar, Scotland.
Westgate supplied and installed two external Flexiwall partitions – one run at 19m long and one at 13m long, and both 5.7m high.
As it was an exposed area, the Flexiwall incorporated wind load straps and mesh vision panel vents to reduce wind pressure on the partition. A translucent material was chosen to enable the area to receive natural light.
Due to the overlap system between panels, Flexiwall offers an over 99% dust tight seal.
