Why are plastic curtains effective barriers in industries

Industries have started using plastic strip curtains in place of wooden or metal doors, and there are several valid reasons that explain why PVC strips are a better option over more conventional barriers. The curtains made of plastic strips are lightweight compared to conventional doors hence, they are easy to install, use and maintain. Owing to the easy availability of the material and its amazingly low raw material cost, manufacturers can provide different grades of plastic strips and door curtains at very cheap rates.  The standard grade plastic curtainsc are highly durable as they are made from material resistant to heat and cold temperatures and their structure ensures that no wear and tear is experienced even after long use.

The plastic curtains made of strips are smaller in width, and several strips together make one plastic door. A plastic strip door is easy to open, and you don’t need to close it as it closes on its own accord saving time and energy. The time difference between opening and closing is very small hence, there is no scope for warm air escaping from the barricaded area, or outer air penetrating inside to upset the prevailing temperature. In conventional doors, this is not possible, and the inner warm or cold air is likely to escape and fumes, dust, and insects, etc. are likely to penetrate whenever the door is opened.

Microorganisms may invade food manufacturing units owing to their scent and properties, but the strip curtains made of plastic are effective at keeping them out. Light inside the room is the element which draws the insects and the strip curtain which is insect proof would form an effective dark barrier making light from inside invisible to insects. These are also UV resistant strip curtains available which are largely used by food manufacturing units.

The plastic door strips are energy efficient and ensure that your electricity bill is kept at a minimum. It is very effective when you have air-conditioners installed in the premises. The curtains allow the workforce to enter the facility without allowing the inside cold air from escaping and at the same time block outside warm air from entering inside. The plastic strip doors are maintenance free, and they can be installed or uninstalled anytime and by anybody without many skills. Being available in strips, doors of any size can be assembled for use quite easily. The plastic material being cheap makes the strip curtains rather low priced hence making them economically feasible items for most industries.
