Benefits of Using Warehouse Curtains

Benefits of Using Warehouse Curtains

If you work in or manage a warehouse, you know that there can be difficulties regarding the amount of space within and how it is utilized.Thankfully, warehouse curtains are a highly effective way of using the space more efficiently – they can separate different departments, maintain employee productivity, limit noise pollution, and maintain temperature differences. If you’ve been having trouble with keeping your warehouse as highly functional as you prefer, think of the potential benefits that warehouse curtains can bring to your business.

Separating Different Departments

Warehouses are expansive spaces, usually dedicated to an entire company’s working process. Different departments, such as shipping, packaging, and office work, maybe required to utilize the same general space, which can be difficult if there aren’t adequate partitions. Further, undivided departments can cause overlap in work tasks and can also create mix-ups with products and other things. Separating different departments with warehouse curtains can boost organization and also keep people on task.

Maintaining Employee Productivity

Warehouse curtains are ideal for maintaining employee productivity, as well. When employees aren’t distracted by other departments interrupting their work, or when their department has the benefit of being surrounded by noise blocking curtains, they can focus on their own tasks. Warehouse curtains can be installed in custom sizes for optimal division, and the materials used to make these curtains are very durable and low maintenance. Even better, they can be moved, making them versatile enough for rearrangement, if necessary.

Limiting Warehouse Noise Pollution

Perhaps the most significant benefit of using warehouse curtains is their potential to limit noise pollution. There are some curtains that are designed specifically for noise reduction. AmCraft Manufacturing offers several types of sound reducing acoustic curtain solutions, including acoustic baffle systems, sound barrier wall panels, and noise control enclosure curtains. These solutions can be used in conjunction with each other to enhance the noise-reducing capabilities of our systems.

Maintaining Temperature Differences

Some industries use their warehouses for a variety of activities that require certain temperature ranges to be maintained. For example, product storage and pharmaceutical storage usually have temperature parameters that they need to follow to ensure quality and safety, and insulated curtains are a great way to corral a certain section of your warehouse to maintain a certain temperature within. This not only keeps your products in their best shape, but it can also lower your heating and cooling costs.

Climate Curtains & Temperature Curtains for Warehouse Spaces

Climate Curtains & Temperature Curtains for Warehouse Spaces

Climate curtains for warehouse spaces provide an effective divider wall for rooms that require consistent climate control. Many times climate control curtains are the solution to containing and controlling cold air temperatures within a large facility. Cold storage warehouses and cold storage facilities offer a temperature controlled environment to their customers. This environment is essential for the protection and stability of many types of packaged goods. Temperature curtains are the same as climate curtains, they are a curtain barrier for controlling temperatures within a curtain wall section or a curtain enclosure.

The main purpose for using climate curtains is to contain temperature to a specific requirement. When the temperature needs to be very cold, such as in a cooler, freezer unit or freezer / refrigerated trucks for shipping goods, it is best to use insulated climate curtain panels. The insulation sewn into the curtain panels offer a better barrier to containing cold air than a vinyl curtain panel. Heavy vinyl curtain walls have thin insulate sewn into the curtains and are used to separate space, maintain temperature zones within a section of a large room, or when used to build an enclosure. The best climate curtain for your needs is determined by the application use and product requirements for temperature control.

Temperature control using climate curtains and temperature curtains is an important function for manufacturing, storage, food processing and food management, loading docks and other needs for indoor and outdoor applications. An industrial climate control curtain provides a long lasting and effective solution to many warehouse spaces. Climate curtains are also used for other indoor and outdoor applications that require some level of temperature control. Whether used to protect products and goods, control temperature costs or as a barrier from indoor and outdoor influence, Climate Curtains offer an effective and cost efficient way to manage your work space.

Warehouse Curtains divide spaces for temperature control

Warehouse Curtains divide spaces
for temperature control

One of the greatest needs for warehouse curtains is to divide spaces for temperature control . A large warehouse typically is built as one large room, with high ceilings and dock doors. While this layout works well for housing large pieces of equipment, shelving units or stored goods, it is not very energy efficient. With the high cost of heating and air conditioning, a solution is necessary to contain temperature zones of specific areas within the warehouse to create improved energy efficiencies.
Many warehouse facilities have dock doors that are opened throughout the day which makes control of the air temperature that much harder to control and maintain. Whether in warm, cold, humid or dry weather, this constant exposure to outdoor elements makes a warehouse not only uncomfortable for employees, but can affect or damage goods inside the facility.

Warehouse curtains offer control over the indoor temperature and air flow from the outside. Warehouse curtain walls act as a warehouse room divider and provides a barrier wall that contains temperature to a specific area. Warehouse curtains are typically mounted to structural beams or ceiling trusses, and our roller track system allows for flexibility in how the curtains are used. Curtain walls can be retracted at any time to allow passage for moving large items and include strip curtain doors for passage of personnel and fork lifts. Industrial curtain valances fill spaces from the ceiling to the curtain track system to create a custom fit enclosure.

Warehouse curtains are an economical and flexible solution to containing warehouse space. The curtain and track systems can easily be moved or repositioned as needs change. It is best to use a professional and licensed installer for the installation of large warehouse curtain walls. AmCraft industrial warehouse curtains are constructed using heavy pvc material with sewn and rf welded edges for long lasting durability. The vinyl material is easy to clean by wiping down with soft cloths and simple cleaners.

Warehouse Divider Curtains

are an effective and cost efficient way to separate large warehouse spaces into contained work areas. Industrial Curtain Walls are mounted from a ceiling support and/or track system to any room size and configuration, Attach warehouse divider curtains to floors and walls to create an enclosure to control temperature variances, provide particle and odor containment, and to create new, accessible rooms or enclosure within a large production environment.

BFC, an integrated print management company had to create a work area for it’s kit packaging division and was faced with numerous options, including the construction of structural walls and doorways. In their research, BFC found AmCraft Manufacturing could frame out a space within the warehouse to hang industrial curtains and create doorways for personnel and forklift access. Strip curtains were used in the metal framed doorways and industrial vinyl curtains were hung from the existing ceiling structure to create the walled room. Metal framing at the bottom provided stability for the large structure and to enclose the new work area.

The decision to build an Industrial Curtain Enclosure was economical as well as practical. The curtain walls were much less expensive and time consuming than to construct a permanent room. Industrial Curtain Track Systems provided flexibility in how the curtains are used; as retractable walls or as removable, movable systems to create new work spaces in other areas of the building. To satisfy long term goals and economies, Industrial Curtain Walls were preferred because they can be easily modified if expansion of the enclosure becomes necessary. The pictures above show the extreme height, width and overall size that was attained using curtain walls to divide BFC’s large warehouse space.
