Hospitals can’t afford to shut down — not during storms, not during cleanup. When disaster strikes, the pressure to protect patients, staff, and critical equipment is immediate. Shrink wrap offers a rapid-response solution that keeps essential areas sealed, dry, and operational.
When Every Hour Counts
Damage to a hospital roof, wall, or window isn’t just a construction issue — it’s a threat to care continuity. Moisture intrusion can compromise:
- Surgical suites
- Medical storage rooms
- Imaging centers
- Emergency departments
Shrink wrap acts as a temporary enclosure that buys time without compromising function. It creates a sealed environment that supports infection control, HVAC stability, and patient safety.
Faster to Deploy, Safer to Operate
Unlike rigid barriers or tarp-based systems, shrink wrap:
- Is custom-fit to complex building shapes
- Can wrap rooftop units, vent stacks, and exposed ductwork
- Allows emergency crews and patients to move underneath it safely
- Meets healthcare-grade fire and UV resistance standards
Hospitals using shrink wrap can continue operations while permanent repairs are underway — without rerouting patients or shutting down entire wings.
Compliance-Friendly Containment
Healthcare facilities must follow strict local, state, and federal regulations. Shrink wrap systems from StormWrappers:
- Support infection control risk assessments (ICRA)
- Reduce water-related remediation claims
- Help meet Joint Commission and FEMA mitigation standards
It’s not just about stopping water — it’s about protecting reputations and lives.
