Description
For projects where weather or project duration do not necessitate use of a drill tent, windscreens can help to shield operators and equipment from the wind. In 2023, IDP purchased four three-panel windscreens from Sheerspeed Shelters Ltd. in the UK. IDP is currently working to fabricate more durable shipping bags to replace those provided by the manufacturer.
