We opted for our DualAir® door as it ensured high safety and provided a unique double skinned curtain offering impressive thermal and sound insulation. The internal trellis mechanism also provided high wind resistance – up to Class 4. With an operating speed of 0.8mtr/second which afforded an open/close cycle of 15 seconds, making significant savings to heat loss.
Soon after the installation a severe weather warning was issued for extreme high winds. We took this opportunity to return to the site to gather valuable feedback from NE Plastics regarding the durability of the product under these conditions. They observed not only had there been a noticeable reduction in both road and wind noise, but the factory was also warmer, and the heating wasn’t on constantly, resulting in better working conditions for their employees and a reduction in their energy bills.
