Tufwrap was recently engaged by Sadleirs Global Logistics, one of our long-term clients who manage critical freight projects across Australia, to provide specialist encapsulation for a Sikorsky S92 helicopter. The aircraft was being prepared for secure transport and long-term storage in Karratha, Western Australia.
Our team mobilised to Karratha to complete the job on-site, delivering a corrosion-controlled solution built to withstand the region’s environmental conditions. We applied a two-layer wrap system, starting with an inner layer of Green VCI 210μm shrink film designed to inhibit corrosion at a molecular level. Over this, we added a 250μm industrial-grade shrink film to provide mechanical strength and UV resistance.
To further protect the aircraft during storage, we included desiccants to control internal humidity levels, along with access hatches for future inspection and replacement of the desiccants, ensuring the helicopter remains protected over time. Our high-performance tape system sealed the entire wrap, creating a tight, weatherproof barrier.
This project highlights the level of care and technical expertise that Tufwrap brings to every job, no matter the complexity. With precision wrapping, corrosion control, and long-term durability built in, the S92 is now secure and ready for whatever comes next.
Fast, safe, reliable.
