Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) strip curtains offer a solution in applications where dirt, dust or insects need to be kept out and where hygiene, humidity, temperature and noise need to be controlled.

Tests have shown that PVC strip curtains can reduce noise levels by between 7 and 15 decibels and can be used to enclose loud machinery to contain noise levels.

It is also used to control levels of humidity, where this is critical to the quality of finished products.

In packaging and warehousing operations, strip curtains can be used to  keep the temperature at specific optimum levels. Applications where temperature control is important include food preparation areas, cold storage and freezer areas, as well as refrigerated trucks. In such facilities, PVC strip curtains can also be used to keep out dust and insects thereby maintaining levels of hygiene.

Similarly, in pharmaceutical and chemical plants PVC strip curtains are used to ensure hygienic and dust-free manufacturing and packaging areas.

Locally manufactured Apex general purpose strip curtains feature the patented Balledge design, which facilitates an optimal thermal seal. The reinforced edges on individual strips allow the curtains to part under pressure, allowing people and goods to move through the PVC strips. The rounded edge also helps to ensure that the strips do not snag or scratch goods or people as they move from one area to another.

The curtains are made from specially formulated, transparent PVC material, allowing visibility between cordoned off areas. Strip curtains are used in heavy engineering and light fabrication facilities as well as in packaging and warehouse operations.

Apex Strip Curtains & Doors promise quality-manufactured products that are long-lasting, even under harsh operating conditions.
