1.1 What is PVC Strip Curtains?

effective and a simple way to control temperature, humidity and prevent the ingress of dust and
insects. They are ideal for maintaining an ambient temperature for your warehouse or cold store,
keeping out unwanted pests, restricting the movement of air pollutants or isolating noisy
machinery. The strips are made of transparent or colored plastic in full or partial overlap; these
strips can create real partition walls suitable to divide rooms and sheds.

after recycling the left over strips and as a result the product doesn’t have a good usable life.
2. Factors to be kept in mind before buying PVC strip Curtain
i. Height and Width of the section where the curtain is to be installed
ii. Temperature to which the curtain will be exposed or the curtain has to maintain

iv. The curtain should be having round edges i.e. sharp edges curtain is not recommended as it
may harm personnel during their to and fro movement through the curtain
v. The curtain material should not react with the ambience temperature i.e. no oiling or any
other chemical activity should be there on the surface of the curtain as a result of chemical
