Healthcare facilities are always evolving—but patient safety can’t take a back seat during construction. 🏥 The Hidden Risk of Hospital Renovations Healthcare facilities are constantly upgrading patient rooms, expanding departments, and modernizing infrastructure. While these improvements are essential, renovation work introduces a hidden danger: airborne contaminants  that can threaten vulnerable patients. Key takeaway:  Construction activity without proper controls can sign

When construction happens inside an occupied building , containment isn’t optional — it’s mission‑critical. Dust, debris, and airborne particles don’t care about schedules or budgets, and once they escape, the damage is done. For decades, plastic sheeting  has been the go‑to solution. It’s cheap, familiar, and easy to find. But is it still the smartest choice for modern facilities? Let’s break down plastic sheeting vs. modular containment walls  and see which one really perfo

That’s where 2212 shines. The 2212 isn

Rewind to the early days of Proflex — I remember Mike explaining that our containment barriers are designed to keep dirt and debris exactly  where they belong: inside the workspace. Now, I’m a “trust but verify” kinda gal. And exactly sounds so definitive. So I asked, “That’s great, but how do we KNOW that dirt and dust can’t escape?” Mike’s answer? A confident grin and two simple words: “It’s science.” And it really is! Ever opened a door and felt that little whoosh of air?
