5 Key Benefits Of PVC Strip Curtains

1. Say goodbye to pest and debris problems
In general, the reality is that where there's bins, there's pests, and where's there's an external opening, there's wind and debris. This can be a huge problem, especially for those in the food industry. Open entrances/exits can't be continually monitored and can let in a number of smaller pests, such as insects. PVC strip Curtains will minimise the risk of pest infestations, particularly if anti-insect strips are used, while still allowing a free-flow of foot traffic. Furthermore, at loading docks they can help prevent dust, debris, pathogens, bacteria, and other contaminants from outside, entering your facility, thus helping maintain sanitary conditions at all times.

2. Improve temperature control
Whether you've got a large space that fails to retain heat or you need to control the temperature in an isolated area, PVC strip curtains can have an immediate effect on regulating the heat or cold. Where it doesn't make sense for a rapid door, it can be difficult to maintain heat when employees are constantly moving through the doorway. PVC strips mean these doorways are sealed but still easy to move through when necessary, or if a door is already in place, they ensure that when the door is open, the temperature around the doorway is still controlled. Moreover, if you have large chiller and freezer spaces, PVC strip curtains are ideal for adding an extra layer of insulation to prevent the escape of air conditioned air, which in turn can help manage energy costs.

3. Save money
Along that train of thought, as far as workplace investment goes, PVC Strip Curtains are a relatively inexpensive solution. They're cheaper to buy, fit and repair than most doors and combined with the benefits of regulating and retaining heat within work spaces, there's the aforementioned benefit of reduced energy bills. As they are each custom made-to-measure, each curtain will be fitted to create an adequate seal, ensuring lesser heat loss for better thermal efficiency and a further reduction in energy consumption.

4. They won't disrupt workflow

If your staff are opening and shutting doors throughout the day, it's probably beginning to get on your staff's nerves in more ways than one. PVC strip curtains on the other hand, due to their flexibility, are easier and more convenient to maneuver through or around with minimal effort when you're transporting heavy loads either by hand or using material-handling equipment like a forklift. Large machinery can seamlessly pass through doorways to get to the other side without the driver having to push, hold, or wait for the door to open.

5. They are super-durable
PVC strip curtains are designed for durability. As they're often installed into high-use areas where there is potential for a large amount of foot traffic and material handling equipment, these strip curtains are made to withstand regular wear and tear from frequent movement, and can endure a considerable amount of stress before stretching or breaking.
