Pvc Curtains – also called Strip Curtains or Industrial Pvc Curtains – can be installed in functions (Food Services – Industrial Production Areas – Workshops – Warehouses – etc.), to help regulate the temperature between rooms, make the your building more energy efficient and prevent the penetration of an area by flying pests. Knowing how and where you will use the right type of industrial curtain will help you determine which model to buy.
It is very important before the buying process, to do a little research to come up with what is the ideal choice for you. The first and essential step to buying the right Pvc Strip Curtain to meet your needs is to ask the following questions:
Always start with the size of the door or opening you want to apply the industrial Pvc curtains to. The curtains should be about 1cm from the floor and extend horizontally beyond the opening by 10-15 cm. Because your curtain strip needs to be the right height and width to work properly, you need to know where it will be installed before you buy it.
A typical door size is 2 m high and 80 cm wide. Our company can customize any type of pvc curtain in various combinations of height and width to accommodate the variety of commercial sizes of any door/opening. The most common measurements are from 80cm - 3m in width and 2-4m in height.
Pvc curtain strips can be installed in areas with light or heavy traffic. In doorways or partitions where pedestrian crossings are used exclusively, you can choose any type of curtain with a smooth surface.
In areas of heavy traffic will usually encounter a noticeable amount of moving equipment in addition to pedestrian movement. In most cases you will need to choose ribbed pvc curtains (see products), which provide greater resistance to frequent vehicle and forklift crossings due to specially designed ribs.
Within each industrial door or partition there are corresponding pvc curtain size options to choose from. The sizes of each pvc curtain strip start from (2x200) mm (3x200) mm (3x300) mm (4x400) mm. The thinner (2x200) mm curtains are recommended for entry points used primarily by workers who are on foot, as the wider strips can be difficult and uncomfortable for a person to pass through, but will not cause problems with equipment.
Size (3x300) curtains are the next choice in most cases to cover openings with greater height and we usually apply them to garage doors and openings that are in contact with the outside. Also, this type of curtain can be applied to any opening with a height of 4 m or more. Curtains of size (4x400) mm, due to their large dimensions, are usually applied to openings in industrial premises facades with a height of 7 m and above.
Pvc curtains are available for many specialist uses, so you need to make sure you choose the right curtain for your needs. For example, if you have a cold room and install a standard standard PVC curtain on the door, you will soon discover the fact that it is less flexible at low temperatures e.g. -20 and may even crack.
Therefore, you should choose Polar Curtains as these are designed to withstand low temperatures and so are more flexible and less likely to crack or break in temperatures between -40°C and +25. If you have a data centre, then you may want to look at PVC anti-static curtains as they help to eliminate static load and so control temperature more easily.
Reinforced Pvc Curtains are ideal if you want PVC strips with the longest life span, as the ribs are the first to be hit when a vehicle hits the curtain. This means that the flat part of the strip will stay stronger for longer. Ribbed strips are also great for interior corridors as they have a natural resistance to static electricity.
Static charge can sometimes build up on regular plain curtains and this can make them harder for people to get through. The ribbed design of the curtains don't stick together as much, which means that your employees will be able to get through them more easily. In cases, where warehouse and office protection is needed privately then opting for opaque or translucent curtains is the solution, as they contribute to a safer working environment without making it possible to see rooms.
In many industries or catering establishments we often encounter insect invasion problems. To protect and avoid them, insect repellent curtains make a difference. They are impregnated with Citronella essential oil which is known for its insect repellent and mosquito repellent properties.
All types of industrial pvc curtains are produced from 100% certified Pvc materials. However, different types of PVC are suitable for different temperatures, ranging from -40 to +45 degrees Celsius. If your curtain application is used in a freezer, you will need to look for a model made from Polar grade PVC that can withstand freezing temperatures because this application requires the curtain to be placed inside the unit. In room temperature applications you can choose any pvc curtain from our range.
If your striped curtains are hard to see, you may think they are scratched, when in fact they may just be dirty. When you consider all the dirt and hazards that Pvc curtains keep away from your workplace, it's no wonder they get so dirty.
If you think your curtains are scratched or dull, simply unravel them and try cleaning them with a damp cloth or lukewarm water, using only mild detergent or liquid detergent, before ordering a new one for replacement. With strong chemicals, bleach or if too much water is left on the strips, then the strips will become cloudy/milky, eventually turning white and opaque.
