With flexible and innovative Natform designs, there are few limitations on building companies that use the screen system. Natform accommodates screens in a vast diversity of low, mid and high rise projects including:
- EShopping complexes
- EResidential buildings
- ECommercial offices
- EHospitals

- ECar parks
- EProviding external stair access
Versatility has been demonstrated with the expanded role of the screen system in steel framed buildings and for finishing trades. There are very few construction sites that cannot be handled by Natform screens.
