Plastic sheeting plays a large role in hospitals. Some people refer to it as "Hospital Rated Visqueen". What they are referring to are the large number of uses for the types of products supplied by Global Plastic Sheeting. Some of the products and applications include:
-Fire Retardant Plastic Sheeting: The most popular of our fire retardant sheeting for hospital applications is ASFR-6. This 6 mil Anti-Static Fire Retardant Plastic will not give off a static electricity discharge like normal plastics, so is safe around sensitive instruments. Also does not attract dust, and hospitals love that feature. We also stock everything from Construction Grade FR Poly, to Reinforced FR Polyethylene.
-Tacky Door Mats (anti-microbial) for the entrances to operating rooms, and for helping contain contaminants in construction/maintenance operations
-Heat Shrink Wrap: This 9 and 12 mil Fire Retardant product is used to wrap and contain any areas needing to be sealed off for any reason

DeckProtek is popular in Health Care applications- 10, 14, and 30 mil versions provide a high level of Fire Retardant floor or wall protection. While most of this is used during periods of construction or renovations, we have also provided it to cover the floors in emergency rooms, rooms where patients have radioactive treatments, where all surfaces must be covered, and many other applications
