Business challenge & considerations.
During a project on an industrial cold storage facility, the team faced the challenge of preventing temperature fluctuations when someone entered the room or left the door open, as the refrigerated area was a walk-in space. After evaluating an alternative supplier whose product did not meet the requirements, they turned to Fanquip for a solution that perfectly aligned with the client’s design brief.
Fanquip solution.
Fanquip recommended installing five air curtains above all window and door openings to create an invisible air barrier between the cold storage and the external environment. This solution prevents external temperatures from impacting the cold storage environment while also blocking odours, dust, and insects from entering.
