About Air Curtains
Air Curtains are designed to create a powerful, invisible barrier of air across doorways, helping minimize the exchange of indoor and outdoor air. The continuous airflow forms an effective separation between different environments while allowing people, vehicles, trolleys and equipment to move through the entrance without the need to constantly open and close physical doors.
Air Curtains are especially useful for entrances that experience frequent movement and regular door opening. They help reduce the entry of dust, flying insects, outside pollutants and unwanted air supporting a cleaner and more controlled indoor environment. By minimizing the loss of conditioned air, Air Curtains can also support better temperature retention and improved energy efficiency.
These systems are suitable for a wide range of commercial and industrial applications, including factories, warehouses, showrooms, restaurants, hospitals, retail spaces, commercial kitchens, cold storage facilities and other frequently accessed areas. Their continuous airflow can help maintain indoor comfort while supporting hygiene and environmental control.
Air Curtains are designed for convenient operation and can be installed above suitable doorways and entrances. With proper selection and installation, they provide a practical solution for maintaining indoor conditions without restricting movement.
Universal Plastics offers Air Curtain solutions for different entrance sizes and application requirements, providing a convenient approach to temperature control, cleanliness, energy efficiency and workplace comfort.
Types of Air Curtains
1. Automatic Air Curtain
Automatic Air Curtains are designed for easy and convenient use. They have a strong ABS body that is dust-resistant and easy to clean. The air blowers work with low noise and provide continuous airflow. A remote control is included to adjust the airflow as required.
2. Industrial Air Curtain
Industrial Air Curtains are made for heavy-duty industrial use. They have overload protection and are designed for long-lasting performance. They are suitable for large doors, including doors with a height of 20 feet or more. The MS powder-coated body provides extra strength and durability.
