side seal tightly
Compresible edge seals
allow for +/- 40mm tolerance
between modules, ensuring a
tight seal between the modules
preventing any loose material
egress through the screens.

Telescopic arms extend
modules to 5.4m whilst
transporting at only 3m wide
improving transport efficiency
as more metres of perimeter
protection can be made
in a single shipment than
competitor systems.
Corners and non linear
shapes easily
accommodated
By using rotating cladding
beam ends, Ascent can
accommodate corners and
curves in the building profile
without sacrificing any safety.
