What are plastic curtains?
For those who don’t know, which may be the majority of you, plastic curtains are basically what they say on the tin, they are industrial curtains made out of plastic or PVC and are usually used in places such as factories or warehouses. They could be compared with window curtains used in homes up and down the country as both blinds and plastic curtains hang in strips and are used to separate rooms or add a bit of privacy as well as a certain amount of insulation for the room. PVC curtains can however be hung in doorways or openings in walls rather than just in windows and they are also made from a much heavier, durable material which retains a lot more heat in the building than normal window curtains and that of course makes savings in heating bills, making PVC curtains are good value for money choice.
The main advantage of using PVC curtains is their unique way of combining the ability to keep a room fairly warm or act as a sort of draught excluder whilst also allowing easy access through the doorway for people and vehicles, which makes them perfect for any doorway which is in heavy use, particularly doorways which are used often and lead to an outdoor area, which need some sort of heat kept in the building.
Where are plastic curtains used?
As I have already said, the unique ability of plastic curtains to act as a sort of draught excluder whilst still allowing easy access through the doorway or opening and so they are often used in places and doorways which are regularly used but require some privacy or separation as well as a bit of heat retention. Places such as warehouses, factories and lorry loading or unloading bays are perfect places for PVC curtains because they are obviously regularly used by employees and by vehicles such as forklift trucks or trolleys but because these
places are often quite open, some heat retention is also very useful.
You may also see plastic doors in use in supermarkets, large shops or even restaurants, supermarkets sometimes use plastic doors to separate the storage or staff room areas of the shop from the actual store while restaurants use plastic doors in their kitchen doorway because of their easy access for waiters and waitresses carrying food into the restaurant, keeping the sounds and privacy of the kitchen in the kitchen.
Plastic curtains are also a cost effective choice, they are reasonably priced in the first place to install but their real value for money comes from their continued use and savings they generate. Because of their durable, heavy material PVC curtains are a good way of retaining heat in a building which makes savings on the energy bill of keeping a building heated, they are also very low maintenance once installed and so it really is a one off cost which makes savings every year they are in use.
