Available in various widths and thicknesses, all manufactured from transparent PVC in Europe. |
Understanding PVC strip curtains
PVC strip curtains, also known as plastic strip curtains or pvc strip doors, offer a practical solution for managing airflow and temperature control. They consist of overlapping strips of transparent PVC material that form a flexible barrier. These curtains allow quick passage for pedestrians and vehicles while reducing the movement of air, dust, and noise between separate areas without requiring rigid doors.
Key applications and benefits
Clear pvc strip curtains are primarily used to prevent draughts and maintain stable indoor climates. Used as warehouse strip curtains, they reduce heat loss at loading bays and internal doorways. When installed as freezer strip curtains in cold storage, they act as an effective thermal barrier, keeping chilled areas at target temperatures and lowering energy consumption on cooling equipment. In industrial workshops, these pvc door curtains help contain dust, fumes, and machinery noise, while on farms they protect livestock housing and open agricultural buildings.
Customised to your needs
Every opening has different requirements, which is why our strip curtains can be cut precisely to your required dimensions. Whether you need a PVC door curtain for a small doorway, a large solution for a loading bay, or individual replacement pvc strips to refresh a worn barrier, we supply strips in various widths and thicknesses. Custom cutting ensures a direct fit without wasted material or complicated setup.
Material properties of clear PVC
All our strip curtains are manufactured from clear, durable PVC. High visibility is essential for safety in busy working environments, allowing personnel and forklift operators to see oncoming traffic clearly. PVC offers good impact resistance, making it suitable for frequent vehicle passes. The smooth surface is straightforward to clean, maintaining transparency and flexibility even with daily operational use.
Selecting the right curtain thickness and width
Selecting the correct width and thickness of your PVC strips depends on your installation environment. Thinner strips suit internal pedestrian doors with lighter use. Thicker and wider strips provide better seal stability in larger doorways exposed to heavy traffic, strong draughts, or sub-zero conditions in freezer applications. Key considerations include opening height, traffic frequency, and whether the curtain is installed internally or externally.
Installation and maintenance
Installing a PVC strip curtain system is fast and functional. Strips attach to a robust hanging rail, making initial fitting and replacing damaged individual strips straightforward. For maintenance, wiping the PVC strips down with warm water and mild soap removes dirt and maintains full transparency. Regular cleaning prevents grime build-up and extends the service life of your doorway barrier.
