When it comes to soft curtain doors, many people's first reaction is the transparent "curtain" that can be automatically raised and lowered hanging at the door of shopping malls and warehouses. But in fact, this layer of "curtain" is not that simple. Its material selection is directly related to the service life, safety performance and applicable scenarios. Today, let's take a look at several commonly used materials for soft curtain doors to see what they are like.
PVC material: an economical and affordable "panacea"
The most common material for soft curtain doors is PVC (polyvinyl chloride). This material is cheap and durable, with strong tear resistance, and is particularly suitable for use in food workshops and supermarkets, which have high hygiene requirements. The surface of PVC soft curtain doors is smooth, and it can be wiped when dirty. It can also be made into translucent or fully transparent styles, which does not affect lighting and can effectively block dust and mosquitoes. However, it should be noted that ordinary PVC will harden at low temperatures. If used in the north in winter, you have to choose thickened or specially formulated products.
Polyester fiber cloth: a high-strength "explosion-proof man"
Some factories need to be anti-static or explosion-proof, and polyester fiber cloth comes in handy at this time. This material is strong, wear-resistant, and can be made into anti-static treatment, which is particularly suitable for places with strict safety requirements such as electronics factories and chemical plants. High-end polyester fiber soft curtain doors can even resist UV (ultraviolet rays) and will not change color even if used outdoors for three to five years.
Rubber material: high temperature resistant "Iron Man"
If used in cold storage or high temperature workshops, ordinary PVC can't stand it. At this time, you have to use rubber soft curtain doors. Natural rubber or synthetic rubber can work normally in the temperature range of -30℃ to 100℃, and it has excellent elasticity. It can automatically rebound when encountering a collision and is not easy to get stuck. However, the price of rubber material is much more expensive than PVC, and you must be careful not to be scratched by sharp objects.
Composite material: all-round "hexagonal warrior"
Now many high-end soft curtain doors use composite materials, such as PVC sandwiched with polyester mesh cloth, or rubber-coated polyester fiber. This combination has both the cheapness and dirt resistance of PVC and the strength of fiber cloth, and can also add fireproof, anti-static and other functional coatings according to needs. Although the price is the most expensive, the performance is also the most comprehensive, suitable for customers with sufficient budget and pursuit of quality.
Special functional materials: "superheroes" with different powers
There are also some special demand scenes that use customized materials, such as:
Radiation-proof soft curtain door: used in the radiology department of the hospital, with lead plate interlayer
Fireproof soft curtain door: can reach B1 fireproof standard through special treatment
Antibacterial soft curtain door: silver ion coating is added on the surface, suitable for pharmaceutical factories
Choosing soft curtain door material is like choosing clothes, it depends on the occasion. Food factories need hygienic and easy-to-clean PVC, chemical plants need explosion-proof polyester fibers, and cold storage needs low-temperature resistant rubber. The next time you see a soft curtain door, you will be an expert in the field!
