It is no secret that being exposed to large amounts of dust can be particularly harmful to our health, with extreme exposure possibly leading to long-lasting respiratory problems, or worse.

Dust particles and pollution can also have a damaging effect on machinery and goods, so it is exceptionally important that within the workplace, to avoid ill health, product or equipment failure, that exposure to dust particles and pollution is kept to a minimum.

Whilst all working environments will result in the creation of, and therefore the exposure to, dust in varying levels, working within an industrial environment can greatly increase exposure to unsafe and hazardous dust and air contaminates. With this in mind, it is essential to ensure that the appropriate measures are put in place to facilitate the highest level of safety.

This is where the utilisation of PVC strip curtains can help.

A well-fitted PVC Strip curtain can effectively create a heavy-duty barrier to protect an area from not only dust and air pollution, but noise pollution too. PVC strip curtains provide a barrier to prevent dust or other airborne pollutants from travelling freely around exposed/open areas.

PVC strip curtains are the ideal first line of defence to prevent dust moving into a working environment from either external areas, or internal areas nearby that may be more susceptible to creating or accumulating dust. These areas could be factories, workshops, or storerooms.

PVC Strip curtains can be bought as a made-to-measure product and are ideal for use on both internal and external openings that are subject to high volumes of motorised and pedestrian traffic. Alternatively, PVC strip curtains are also available as ready-made kits, suitable for any openings and doorways from small, light-duty openings to heavy-duty areas. These ready-made curtains feature a stainless steel hook type suspension system for easy assembly.

Using PVC strip curtains – either bespoke made to measure ones, or those that can be purchased in ready-made kits, increases the safety levels of your working environment. Whether it be a factory, a warehouse, or even a school or nursery, PVC strip curtains can assist the workforce by preventing the collection and flow of dust whilst at the same time reducing the chances of pollution.

We are sure you will agree that if you have any worries about external factors such as dust, air pollution, or noise pollution, PVC strip curtains are the perfect solution for you.
