The Floor of the Welding Bay

The floor of our welding bays is equipped with Flexshield Welding Mats, designed for safety and durability.

  • Features: Nonconductive, non-slip, and anti-fatigue, reducing the risk of electric shock and providing a comfortable working surface for welders.
  • Specifications: Available in various sizes, with high visibility yellow borders for enhanced safety.

Extraction for the Acoustic Welding Bay

Our telescopic fume arms, connected to a central extraction system, ensure a clean and safe working environment.

Features: Composite hoods, adjustable telescopic action, and optional floor-mounted/mobile units, offering flexibility and efficiency in fume extraction.

Worktables/Tanks for Acoustic Welding Bays

We offer a comprehensive range of custom benches tailored to the specific needs of our clients.

  • Options: Welding tables, oxy tables, gas cutting tables, quench tanks, and downdraft tables, fabricated to the highest standards of quality and durability.

"I would like to commend Flexsheild for their customer support, every step of the process has been very professional from quote to supply. I changed the request a few times and nothing was too much trouble, the welding screens arrived promptly from order and were packed extremely well. As we received 4 different curtain sizes all were clearly marked which made installation a breeze. Not only have we improved the visual appearance of our welding bays we believe we have provided our teachers and students with a safer working environment. I would be happy to recommend Flexsheild to any education provider as its Australian made and meets the highest quality and safety standards. "
