PVC Strip Curtain Applications: Solving Borneo's Industrial Challenges

RUBASIA RUBBERTECH INDUSTRIES provides essential environmental control solutions across Borneo. Our 2mm Clear Blue PVC Strip Curtains are not just a product; they are a tool for solving specific operational, hygiene, and efficiency problems. Here’s a detailed look at how they are applied in the unique context of Sabah, Sarawak, and Brunei.

 

1. Thermal & Cold Room Integrity Applications

• Problem: Massive energy loss and temperature fluctuation every time a door opens in a refrigerated space.
• Our Solution: Heavy-duty 2mm strips create an effective thermal barrier, minimizing air exchange.
• Specific Use Cases:
  • Seafood Freezers in Sandakan & Semporna: Maintains consistent -18°C to -25°C temperatures in holding freezers, protecting product quality and reducing compressor strain.
  • Dairy & Meat Cold Stores in Brunei Muara & Kuching: Creates an airtight seal for chillers (0°C to 4°C), ensuring compliance with food safety standards.
  • Beverage Storage Warehouses: Keeps air-conditioned storage rooms cool, reducing energy costs for drink distributors across Borneo.
  • HVAC Efficiency in Office Attachments: Sealing warehouses in Kota Kinabalu's industrial parks (KKIP) or Bintulu's zones from attached offices, drastically cutting air-conditioning costs.

 

2. Hygiene & Contamination Control Applications

• Problem: Airborne contaminants like dust, insects, and fumes compromise product quality and safety.
• Our Solution: Overlapping strips act as a physical barrier while allowing full access.
• Specific Use Cases:
  • Palm Oil Mill Entrances (Lahad Datu, Tawau): Prevents dust and pests from entering the milling area, protecting machinery and product quality.
  • Food Packaging Lines (Keningau, Seria): Installed between raw preparation and packaging areas to prevent cross-contamination, meeting HACCP requirements.
  • Pharmaceutical & Medical Packaging: Creates a clean-room-like barrier in facilities, controlling particulate matter.
  • Hospital & Clinic Kitchens (Bandar Seri Begawan, Miri): Keeps kitchen areas separated from patient corridors, blocking odors and pests.

 

3. Safety & Zone Segregation Applications

• Problem: Need to separate hazardous or noisy areas without building permanent walls that block traffic flow.
• Our Solution: The clear blue material provides visibility and a physical demarcation.
• Specific Use Cases:
  • Welding & Fabrication Bays (Samalaju Industrial Park, Bintulu): Contains dangerous UV sparks and grinding debris within a designated cell, protecting nearby workers.
  • Paint Spray Booths: Contains overspray and fumes, improving ventilation efficiency and protecting other workshop areas.
  • High-Noise Machinery Enclosures: Surrounding loud machinery in Kuching's manufacturing plants to dampen noise pollution for the entire facility.
  • Forklift Traffic Lanes: Creating clear, safe pathways in Labuan or Sibu warehouses, preventing collisions between forklifts and pedestrians.

 

4. Pest & Insect Exclusion Applications

• Problem: Tropical insects and birds entering through open doorways, contaminating products and creating unsanitary conditions.
• Our Solution: A constantly closed, yet passable, barrier that insects cannot penetrate.
• Specific Use Cases:
  • Rice & Grain Silos: Preventing weevils and other pests from entering storage facilities.
  • Fruit Packing Houses (Tenom): Protecting graded and boxed produce from fruit flies and other contaminants before shipment.
  • Restaurant Backdoors & Loading Areas (Urban Centers across Borneo): A critical defense against cockroaches, flies, and rodents seeking food waste, ensuring high hygiene ratings.

 

5. Operational Efficiency & Workflow Applications

• Problem: Traditional doors slow down operations, require manual operation, and create bottlenecks.
• Our Solution: Hands-free, automatic passage for people, trolleys, and forklifts.
• Specific Use Cases:
  • Loading Dock Rapid Transit (All Major Ports): Forklifts can move in and out of trucks continuously without stopping to open doors, drastically speeding up loading/unloading times.
  • Production Line Transfers: Installed between different stages of production (e.g., assembly to testing), allowing smooth movement of components on carts.
  • Warehouse Order Picking Zones: Separates bulk storage from picking areas while allowing order pickers to move freely with their carts.

 

6. Niche & Specialized Applications

• Problem: Unique environmental challenges requiring a flexible solution.
• Our Solution: The adaptability of loose-length strips allows for custom applications.
• Specific Use Cases:
  • Aquaculture & Hatcheries (East Coast Sabah): Used in indoor fish hatcheries to separate tanks and control humidity and drafts.
  • Car Wash Tunnels: Containing overspray and mist between different stages of the wash cycle.
  • Aviation Hangers (Brunei International Airport): Segmenting large hangar spaces for different maintenance activities while allowing equipment to pass.
