Equipment Protection Film for Air Conditioning Units in Transit
Armcor Air Solutions manufactures high-performance, Australian-built air conditioning units supplied to commercial and industrial projects across the country. Every unit is wrapped in Diamondguard 870W White Protection Film immediately after final assembly. Units can remain wrapped for up to three months as they move through freight networks, site storage, and staging zones before installation. The 870W film keeps each unit protected through the entire journey from factory to site.

The Challenge
Air conditioning units shipped across Australia face a protection challenge that most construction site applications do not. These are fully assembled mechanical systems moving through long freight cycles, outdoor storage yards, and busy site staging areas in varying weather conditions. Exposure periods of up to three months are not unusual before a unit reaches its installation point.
Standard short-term protection films are not built for this. The risk is not just surface scratching. It is UV degradation, weather exposure, moisture ingress, and handling damage accumulating across weeks or months before anyone on site has even seen the unit. By that point, the damage is already done.
The Solution
Armcor wraps every unit in Diamondguard 870W White Protection Film at the point of final assembly. The 870W series is a UV-stable protection film designed for extended outdoor exposure, giving it the durability to perform across Australia’s varied climates and long distribution cycles.
The film provides weather-resistant coverage against rain, dust, and UV exposure, with puncture and tear resistance suited to freight handling and site movement. Critically, it removes cleanly without leaving adhesive residue even after months on the unit, so equipment arrives installation-ready without requiring cleaning or surface remediation before commissioning.
Diamondline Group supplies the Diamondguard range of temporary surface protection films and tapes to distributors and trade suppliers across Australia.

FAQs
The 870W series is designed for extended application periods including long freight cycles and outdoor storage. It has been used on air conditioning units remaining wrapped for up to three months without adhesive residue on removal.
Yes. Diamondguard 870W is UV-stable and weather-resistant, making it suited to outdoor storage yards and site staging areas across Australia’s climate range.
Short-term protection films are designed for construction site use across weeks. Long-term films like the Diamondguard 870W series are formulated to maintain adhesion and UV stability over months, with clean removal at the end of an extended protection period.
