PVC Strip Curtains for Warehouse Docks and Shutters

Vibha Systems' PVC Strip Curtains for Warehouse Docks and Shutters provide a flexible and durable barrier solution designed to optimize operational efficiency in busy warehouse and dock environments. Made from high-quality, clear PVC strips, these curtains facilitate easy movement of forklifts, personnel, and goods while effectively controlling temperature, reducing dust and contaminants, and minimizing noise pollution. Ideal for loading docks, warehouse entrances, and shutter openings, they enhance workplace safety, improve hygiene, and help maintain energy efficiency by preventing heat loss or cold drafts.

  • At Vibha Systems, we recently completed a large-scale installation of warehouse PVC strip curtains and warehouse shutter PVC air curtains for a leading logistics company operating in both Chennai and Bangalore.

    The client required a reliable solution to:

    • Maintain internal temperature control at loading docks

    • Reduce dust and insect entry through warehouse shutters

    • Improve hygiene for goods handling areas

    • Allow smooth movement of forklifts and workers without manual door operation

    This project was executed across two major distribution centers, each with multiple large shutter openings used for loading and unloading goods.

  • Client Requirements and Challenges

    Before our installation, the warehouses faced several operational challenges:

    • Energy loss: Every time shutters opened, large amounts of conditioned air escaped, increasing electricity costs.

    • Dust and pest entry: Open dock areas allowed airborne dust and insects into the workspace, affecting cleanliness.

    • Operational delays: Workers often had to wait for shutters to be opened or closed, slowing down loading times.

    • Temperature fluctuations: Cold storage areas could not maintain optimal temperatures during loading/unloading.

    The client needed a dual-solution approach—PVC strip curtains to create a flexible barrier and PVC air curtains to provide an invisible shield of air over each shutter.

Our Solution

We designed a custom installation plan for both Chennai and Bangalore facilities:

  1. Warehouse PVC Strip Curtains Installation

    • Heavy-duty transparent PVC strips were installed at each dock opening.

    • Strips overlapped to create a continuous barrier while allowing forklifts and workers to pass through without obstruction.

    • Clear strips maintained full visibility to prevent accidents in high-traffic areas.

  2. Technical Specifications
