Heavy Traffic & Vehicle Access
In busy industrial environments, where forklifts, pallet trucks, and large machinery constantly move in and out of wide doorways, standard PVC curtains just won’t cut it. You need a tougher, thicker, and more durable solution that can withstand the wear and tear of heavy traffic.
Our Heavy Duty PVC Strip Curtains are built for exactly that.
Ideal for commercial and industrial settings, these reinforced curtains protect your space from drafts, dust, pests, and temperature loss, while still allowing free movement of vehicles and equipment.
We sell Heavy Duty PVC Strip Curtains that are manufactured with the highest quality and clarity. Our Heavy Duty PVC Strip Curtains are extremely useful for providing protection from the elements and great insulation, while still allowing warehouse traffic to flow freely through warehouse doors. This allows you to save money on heating and drops your energy bills, as PVC is great at keeping the warmth in and keeping the cold weather out. They also provide other added benefits such as reducing noise pollution, reducing pests and contaminants from passing through the doorway and entering the premises, and improving workers well-being. We offer pre-built curtain kits for common door sizes and can also create custom orders should these not reach your specifications.
Our PVC strip curtains are a low-cost solution for a wide range of industries. If your doorway has a lot of heavy machinery such as forklifts, passing through then we recommend a 300mm or 400mm strip. This is to ensure that the strips are large enough to endure traffic from such large machines. We also recommend using our ribbed PVC range, which is a PVC reinforced with ribs, that allows the PVC to withstand more damage. If you think that you maybe need something that suits pedestrian traffic more, then head over to our general PVC strip curtain page where we will explain the purposes and criteria for these smaller strip sizes.
Why Choose Heavy Duty PVC Strip Curtains?
These heavy-duty curtains are engineered to perform under pressure. Whether installed at a warehouse loading bay or factory doorway, they offer:
-
Long-lasting durability, even under constant contact from forklifts and HGVs
-
Energy efficiency, by preventing heat loss during door-open cycles
-
Improved workplace safety, by maintaining visibility and reducing noise
-
Protection from wind, pests, and airborne contaminants
The Right PVC for the Job
We recommend 300mm or 400mm wide strips for heavy traffic areas. These larger strips are made from thicker-grade PVC, offering better resistance to tearing and impact.
To further enhance durability, consider our Ribbed PVC Strip Curtains — featuring raised ribs that absorb contact and reduce wear on the main body of the strip, making them even more durable than our standard PVC.
