Benefits of STARC Temporary Walls for Airports

Undisrupted Experience

STARC Systems Product

We’ve got some good news and some bad news. The bad news: airports are probably always going to be a stressful experience. There’s nothing we can really do about that. The good news: with STARC temporary reusable walls, airport renovations will never be a part of that stress. In fact, passengers likely won’t even know there is a renovation project happening at all. So go ahead and renovate that airport! Or don’t. Either way the experience for passengers will remain the same.

And because it’s less labor intensive, you’ll be able to start projects on time and with minimal downtime between phases.

Undisrupted Protection

If any place needs to be safe, it’s an airport. You don’t think they have those long security lines just for fun, do you? So when an airport renovation is taking place, you can’t put up just any old wall and call it a day. You need the protection and security that only STARC temporary reusable walls can provide, with a variety of locking doors and other security features to ensure that all the renovation mess stays in and anything or anyone who shouldn’t be stays out.

Everything that can be used for airport construction is eligible for FAA grants. Ironically, that also includes products like these which allow terminal construction to take place not only out of sight of passengers, but also with significant noise reduction. The FAA is happy to pay for noise reduction which improves the passenger experience.
