DUST CONTROL IS KING FOR QUT REFURB PROJECT

WORKING IN A CLOUD OF DUST IS TOUGH.

So when QUT University at Gardens Point needed refurbishment, our client needed an efficient dust control solution to ensure reconstruction work wouldn’t affect the uni’s staff and students.

Clearly, QUT couldn’t afford to shut down their usual everyday activity just for renovation work. And that meant contractors onsite needed a heavy duty dust control system

that would keep dust to a minimum. They turned to All Preparation Equipment for expert advice on dust control.

ZIPWALL DUST BARRIERS CREATE A RELIABLE DUST-FREE SOLUTION

As a primary barrier against dust, All Preparation Equipment recommended our tried and tested ZipWall dust barrier system. Not only easy to install, but also extremely effective in containing dust and debris, ZipWall was the complete dust control solution for the project.

An important advantage of the ZipWall system is it's easy to set up, easy-to-use entry and exit points, which offer the greatest possible flexibility of movement while still preventing dust from leaving the worksite. It’s so simple.

The All Preparation Equipment team demonstrated to our client how easy it is to install zips to create temporary doorway entry and exit points. ZipWall’s flexibility meant the contractors were easily able to adapt the dust barrier system to construct the ideal layout in each section as needed.

SURFACE PROTECTION WHERE IT COUNTS

Along with high quality dust control, working next to an operational area of the university meant our client needed temporary - heavy duty surface protection for QUT’s existing floor coverings and carpets. All Preparation Equipment recommended self-adhesive carpet film as the primary defence against accidental damage of these areas.

Another weapon in the battle to prevent damage was our Polyweave heavy duty surface protection. With its super strong, woven polythene construction, Polyweave surface protection is also incredibly easy to install. By simply rolling out the industrial strength woven material and taping it to the floor, Polyweave gave a complete barrier against spills and wet foot traffic.

An essential piece to the dust containment puzzle was the sticky dust mats which worked as a hassle-free way to prevent dust and dirt from being walked through into other areas. Setup at every entry and exit point to the refurbishment project, protective sticky mats kept dirt and dust within the site and helped to keep the other floor areas clean.

EFFECTIVE DUST CONTROL SAVES IN CLEAN UP TIME AND REPAIRS

QUT’s commercial refurbishment project has now been successfully completed, with dust containment solutions from All Preparation Equipment playing a big part in keeping the uni clean and functional.
