Opportunities for Industrial Curtains in Material Handling

The material handling industry is tasked with addressing some of the most complex needs of industrial businesses. Managing the storage and transportation of goods and products means material handling suppliers must have solutions that can cater to a wide range of storage requirements at warehouses and manufacturing plants. This has led to the rapid growth of industrial curtain products.

Industrial curtains offer alternatives to permanent walls, partitions or other enclosures. Advanced materials technology allow curtains to be customized for specific material handling needs.

Air-tight seals.

Edge-sealing technology allows for air-tight curtain enclosures. This helps maintain temperature control and keep unwanted air particles, including dust, fumes, and odors from entering or exiting the storage area. These can be used to isolate materials that carry a high risk of foreign contamination. Conversely, they can be used for handling materials that are volatile, odorous, or which can potentially contaminate other materials. In addition to creating separate storage space, these curtains can be used to section-off specialized workspaces within a warehouse or production environment.

Anti-static materials.

For facilities where electric discharge could result in an explosion or compromise of sensitive materials, anti-static and electrostatic dissipative (ESD) curtains are a critical solution. The same technology being applied in cleanrooms can also be used for handling and storage of electronic components. Beyond electronics, anti-static curtains can be used with volatile and combustible materials.

Food-grade materials.

Food processing industries are subject to excruciating levels of regulation. Industrial curtains can be crafted to comply with the majority of U.S. and international food regulating agencies, including USDA, NSF, CFIA-ACIA and FDA. The handling and storage of certain food products requires environments that are temperature-controlled and bacteria-resistant, while others require substantial airflow. Industrial curtains can create safe dividers between food products within a freezer or cooler, as well as create temperature barriers between air-conditioned and non-air-conditioned storage areas.

Temperature control.

Industrial curtains offer a more cost-effective solution to having multiple environmental and temperature zones within a warehouse or other storage and handling facility. Beyond the food industry, such capabilities are needed for pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and many other industries. Different insulating materials and thicknesses can be utilized depending on the environmental requirements.

Sound barriers.

Many kinds of industrial environments use retractable acoustic curtains to separate areas where sensitive work can be done without the noise, distraction, and vibration of production. For material handling, acoustic curtains can also be used when handling products that are vibration sensitive, such as glass, electronics, volatile chemicals, and more.

Fixed or retractable.

Sometimes a material handling solution requires flexible spatial dimensions. Industrial curtain tracks allow many kinds of separated spaces to be increased or modified for variable material needs. Most curtain solutions can also be installed in a stationary position with a variety of entry options.

Work area dividers.

Beyond material storage, industrial curtains can also be used to partition workspaces within material handling facilities and warehouses. These can be used for office work, painting or detailing, woodwork, chemical mixture, packaging, and more.

Amcraft has again supplied an exceptional product for another one our projects.Their sales and engineering groups were able to meet our extensive custom order. The ship date was as promised, and received in perfect condition. I can’t think of any other manufacturer who could meet our food grade needs.

Kristen and the team at Amcraft was very accommodating. They made the ordering process simple, efficient and communicated their expertise with precision and accuracy. The customer curtains (2), were made to our expectations and the lead time/delivery was faster than expected.Although, they were built as curtains, we work in a hot environment and change the way we mounted the curtains. We have seen a decrease in temperature in our facility, which can be an oven.We wish the best for Amcraft, and thank you again.

Our company installed a machine that is known for the generation of relatively high decibel readings. The readings were exacerbated by the location of the machine adjacent to a concrete block wall. The combination of machinery and location resulted in decibel readings that exceeded expectations.We spoke with several companies for a solution, and AmCraft was chosen for the flexibility of their product. It allowed the sound dampening wall to be retracted when service needed to be done and provided an excellent amount of sound cancellation.Andrea at AmCraft was very patient as we sorted out what was best for our process and our budget.The customer has expressed an interest in using these same panels for other applications in their mill.Good Job AmCraft!! Thank You Very Much.
