More Than Just Energy Savers

The energy saving benefit of PVC strip curtains as a result of their heat retention is well documented. The usefulness of this versatile and simple item extends far beyond the realms of environmental awareness and overhead slashing however. The strip curtain can be implemented in a wide range of circumstances and combats numerous inconveniences and dangers. The following are just a small selection of the benefits offered:

Pest Control

Strip doors provide a physical barrier which prevents the entrance of airborne insects and other contaminant organisms. Although easily moved by humans, the gapless barrier created by a PVC curtain is resilient and robust enough to not only stop insects from passing through but also birds and other small animals. Another benefit of the strip curtain is that due to its transparency and minimal light distortion, this protective function can be capitalised upon for the protection of display units, without compromising an observer's view of the product itself.

Dust and Fume Containment

Although by no means an airtight seal, PVC barrier curtains are incredibly effective at containing dust and fumes. In conjunction with adequate ventilation, the spread of potentially hazardous airborne particles is drastically reduced when a PVC curtain is used across entrances and exits. This application is particularly beneficial in industrial environments which involve woodcutting, spray painting and other processes likely to generate irritants or fumes. The use of barrier curtains in toxic environments is imperative in some circumstances for the wellbeing of all involved.

Limitation of Sound Pollution

Either used alone or in conjunction with a conventional door, PVC door curtains not only insulate effectively against heat, but also insulate from sound. Admittedly not ideal as a replacement for a heavy duty door in night clubs and the like, door curtains offer discernable reductions in sound in industrial environments: without compromising accessibility. The dampening and reduction of volume is a welcome benefit which is unlikely to be the sole purpose for purchase, but a serious incentive to those already considering the product for its other attributes.

The true value of PVC strip curtains in industrial environments doesn't necessarily reside in the individual advantages highlighted, but in the cumulative benefit of various functions in conjunction with one another. Other supplementary factors which apply to almost all circumstances include the cost efficiency of PVC strip doors, ease of pedestrian traffic and simplicity of assembly of the units. In short, PVC strip curtains are suitable in an expansive array of scenarios and the advantages are both multitudinous and diverse.
