Infection control is mission-critical during healthcare renovations. When construction takes place in active hospitals, clinics, or surgical centers, ICRA compliance is not just a guideline. It is a requirement.

While traditional drywall containment has long been the standard for temporary infection control, leading healthcare contractors are now moving to reusable ICRA barrier systems like Rapid Room™. The reason is simple: reusable barriers offer better performance, lower long-term costs, and faster installation.

Drywall is Disposable. The Costs Are Not.

Drywall may appear inexpensive at first glance. But when you consider the full picture, the hidden costs quickly become clear.

A typical drywall containment setup includes several costly elements:

• Installation often takes hours and requires taping, mudding, sanding, and sometimes painting.

• Labor costs are high, particularly when skilled workers are required.

• Clean-up and demolition create dust and debris that need to be properly handled.

• Once the project is complete, all materials are discarded and cannot be reused.

The total cost for a single drywall containment project can easily exceed budgeted costs. When a facility undergoes multiple renovations each year, drywall becomes a recurring and unsustainable expense.

The Rapid Room Advantage: Reusable, Reliable, Cost-Efficient

Rapid Room™ is a reusable, modular ICRA containment system designed for healthcare environments. It offers full compliance with ICRA Class IV standards and installs significantly faster than drywall. There is no dust, no demolition, and no waste.

Here is how Rapid Room provides long-term value:

• The initial investment is typically recouped within just two to three uses.

• Per-use cost drops with each project.

• Each unit can be reused across dozens of projects for many years.

• There is little to no material waste and no disposal cost at the end of the job.

Rapid Room is not just a better containment solution. It is a smarter financial decision for any facility planning ongoing renovations.

Faster Installs and Cleaner Worksites

Rapid Room installs in under an hour and forms a tight seal that supports negative air pressure. Compared to drywall, the benefits are clear:

• Faster installation means less disruption to patient care.

• The clean, dust-free setup helps maintain a safer environment.

• There is no need for plastic sheeting, zip walls, or excessive clean-up.

• Teardown is quick and does not damage surrounding surfaces.

When time and cleanliness are critical, Rapid Room provides a reliable solution.

Built for Healthcare, Proven to Perform

Rapid Room is purpose-built for the demands of healthcare construction. Contractors, facility managers, and infection prevention teams rely on it to:

• Protect patients and staff during active renovations.

• Maintain full ICRA compliance throughout the project.

• Reduce long-term containment costs.

• Improve project efficiency and minimize downtime.

Whether your project is large or small, Rapid Room gives you the tools to work effectively in sensitive clinical environments.

Stop Spending on Drywall You Will Throw Away

Drywall containment is no longer the most effective or economical choice. If your facility is still building, tearing down, and disposing of drywall for every renovation, you are spending more than you need to.

Reusable containment systems are now the industry standard. With Rapid Room, you make a one-time investment that delivers savings for years.
