TuffWrap SmartSeam 10-Year Celebration

This October marks the TuffWrap SmartSeam 10-Year Celebration. SmartSeam® is a much-needed advance in the problem of construction debris and contaminants – when it installed its revolutionary suspended cover system at a nationally known craft brewery in 2013. SmartSeam® was the first suspended cover and proprietary installation system that allowed suspended cover to be placed below the sprinklers.

Installation above sprinklers eliminated the problem of impeded sprinkler operation. However, it made it difficult to seal around all protrusions at that level. In addition, it introduced the risk of the suspended cover falling during a fire and preventing the sprinklers from operating properly. Installation below sprinklers avoided the problem of sealing around all protrusions. But it prevented the sprinklers from functioning properly, or at all. 

SmartSeam® solved all of these problems. In addition, SmartSeam® is the only suspended cover product and installation method specifically developed and approved for temporary interior protection when installed beneath the automatic sprinklers to mitigate dust and debris.

For the first time suspended cover could be installed safely below the sprinkler systems allowing reroofing and repair projects to continue overhead without costly production shutdowns, product recall risks, and most importantly, endangering the people and products. SmartSeam® gives companies the confidence in knowing the sprinklers remain fully operational in case of a fire. That’s something to celebrate.
