Abatement Technologies, a manufacturer of specialized construction containment products designed to help protect those in and around construction in occupied spaces, announces the launch of SHIELD WALL™ CONNECT at the 97th Annual American Association of Airline Executives (AAAE) Conference & Exposition in Atlanta, GA from June 8-10, 2025.
CONNECT is the latest offering from Abatement Technologies’ ground-breaking SHIELD WALL™ temporary, reusable, modular wall system. Taking SHIELD WALL™ to new heights, CONNECT panels are stackable up to 40’ using a simple system of brackets and bracing with no exterior framing required. Built with aluminum panels featuring a painted white exterior and unfinished metal interior, CONNECT is available in various panel sizes, with doors available with locking lever or optional electronic keypad handles. Its smooth exterior surface is ideal for graphics application for advertising, instructions, and more. The SHIELD WALL™ CONNECT system is easily adaptable to a variety of areas and uses, making it suitable for a wide range of applications including in airports, educational institutions, events and entertainment venues, government buildings, manufacturing facilities, retail spaces, warehouses, and office spaces.
“Our customers told us they were looking for a modular wall solution that was not only quick and easy to install, but also professional-looking and sturdy enough to handle real job site conditions. SHIELD WALL™ CONNECT meets these needs across the board. It helps reduce disruptions, keep things safe, and present a polished look when doing construction in high-traffic environments,” said Andrew Harber, CEO, Abatement Technologies. The CONNECT system fully integrates with existing SHIELD WALL™ CORE, CLASSIC, and CLEAR panels and hardware. The system is suited for indoor use and also meets safety standards, exceeding ASTM E84 for Smoke and Flame Rating (Class A).
CONNECT walls can be built in minutes, not hours. The system offers fast, seamless installation requiring no drilling on assembly. It is also easy to reconfigure through different phases of a project and to disassemble, reducing labor and downtime. SHIELD WALL™ CONNECT is reusable, stores easily, resists damage, and is easy to clean, making it cost-effective and environmentally friendly.
Airport and aviation professionals attending the AAAE conference are invited to visit the Abatement Technologies booth to see the SHIELD WALL™ CONNECT system in action and learn how it can optimize operations and enhance passenger satisfaction and safety during construction and renovation projects.
