Dividing a large warehouse can be a very tough job to do considering production and expense. But with the AKON modular wall dividing system, dividing a large industrial plant will take less time and effort. AKON can give you warehouse dividing options that are very inexpensive and very quick to implement.

Most times companies decide to share a facility for a different production process. This sharing goes a long way and can cause damage to individuals, products and the environment. It might also lead to certain damage which will affect the growth of the business. There is no way you can avoid the noise and contamination from both production process.

In a standard facility, environmental conditions are contained in the chunk given to a particular production process by a warehouse dividing walls. Temporal and permanent walls can be fixed in facilities although the temporal wall is easily installed and can be adjusted anytime. The permanent wall is time-consuming, more expensive and would stall production till is fixed and ready. Unlike the permanent wall, it is cost-effective, requires little time to install and would not stop the production process but reduce contamination drastically.

Food Production Recommendations for Allergen and Non-allergen Products

Introduction

Statistics have shown that there are many deaths every year in America from food-induced anaphylaxis, this is according to the Food Standards Agency. Over 1,500 deaths are asthma which may be caused by an allergy to certain food. This statement shows that food reactions can be more severe than it’s been talked about. Those with food allergies are at great risk, if not careful a simple trace of a food allergen can cause severe symptoms and might, in some cases, lead to fatal symptoms. Food allergens are regulated and assessed by clinical and scientific experts in America, their job is to make sure that foods are not contaminated and safe for consumption.

However, most recorded death from food allergens are consumer based and they likely occur in restaurants and eateries. There are regulations with regards to allergens in the food manufacturing industry to reduce contamination of food in the industry. Foods produced with allergens must be labeled crystal clear, and where there are no possible production facilities, packaging should highlight the potential risk of such food.

Partitioning of Allergen Containing Products

Installing Walls Between Production Lines.

Installing physical board to fully separate production line or create space is one of the most simple and cost-effective solutions to contamination. Quite a number of businesses use this method of segregating production line their facilities.

The Wipe Clean Hygenic panel is often used to generate separate areas for different food production lines. Its tight joint feature enables it to be fitted together to attain a sealed space, thereby minimizing the risk of cross-contamination.

That’s not all, another advanced technology manufactured by AKON is the AKON Curtains and Dividers. The curtain is a fixed and portable system that partitions production lines immediately for washdown, or when two production lines are in use to produce products that need separation to avoid cross-contamination. This type of partition is used for odor, dust or transmission particles.

Specialized Equipment

This device is typically used when manufacturing products with both allergen and non-allergen containing food. Scales, Utensils, and storage devices are possible equipment used for separation, although proper labeling should be made to evidently identify which equipment suits the type of food. If a color coding system is not in place, it should be made available to specify the various types of food.

Ventilation

More consideration should be given to the possibility of cross-contamination by air. Facilities that have the same source of air supply face the risk of cross-contamination if the product manufactured is allergen and non-allergen. In a scenario where allergen product is been produced with a non-allergen product in a facility, and they both share the same air supply, there is a high possibility that the air from the allergen products can enter the production line of the non-allergen product and this will certainly contaminate the food. To minimize this risk, a dedicated air condition and extraction system should be put in place. AKON Curtain and Divider should be installed between production areas.

Managing Product Schedules

For businesses that cannot run both allergen and non-allergen product in a facility, they should manufacture non-allergen products first before allergen product. This will reduce the risk attached to cross contamination. It is also advisable to run long production of allergen products to decrease the number of changeovers required. After a long run of allergen product in a facility, there should be a thorough washdown of that facility to eradicate every chance of contamination.

Summary

Facilities where both allergen-containing food and non-allergen containing food are produced within the facility, there is a high risk of contamination but there are ways of minimizing the risk of cross-contamination through partitioning of production lines. Some of these ways of partitioning include:

Making use of different areas of the factory.
Providing barriers to fully separate production lines.
Installing Partitioning equipment.
Impose strict movement of materials in the facility.
Proper planning of production lines and apposite maintenance of equipment between production lines.
Regulating rework and making sure product residual materials containing an allergen is not reworked for an allergen-free product.
Separating air supply in each production lines.

Production Curtains – Maximizing Space

Introduction

One challenge every business face is the maximizing of space available to them. This is as a result of either to cope with an increase in business or to accommodate a new production line of the business. Therefore businesses demand an effective solutions to provide them with the required chunk of space needed for that increase in their facility.

Before now, business has been plunged to know just one solution for space maximization, which is a conventional extension and expansion development. However, we will be reviewing the disadvantages of extension and introducing a cost-effective solution from AKON. This alternative solution will overcome challenges related to traditional partitioning methods.

Request for a Rapid Quote

The Problem With Production Line Expansions

Permanence

Change is constant and every business that grows needs to adapt in terms of the business. Using the traditional expansion as a solution for maximizing space is sometimes a problem when there is a new production line and there is need to adjust the facility to accommodate this new production.

Time

Time they say is money. The conventional extension takes time to prepare especially when the size and scale of the expansion are huge. Building this extension will take a couple of months, which is not good for the business if time is considered and space is needed on time.

Expensive

A conventional expansion is expensive to build and when it takes time to get ready, it demands more finance. If the budget for expansion is low and has to be strictly adhered to then the traditional expansion is the wrong solution for maximizing space in any business facility.

Extensive Ground-works

Conventional extension demands ground-work which is generally disorderly to the existing process, this, in turn, will increase the time needed to complete the extension which will demand more finance. The conventional extension is a permanent feature that cannot adapt easily should the needs of the business change

Production Line Partitions for Maximising Space

Now let us introduce you to a new solution that is not just cost-effective but can adjust to your new production line in your facility.

Installation

The installation process is fast and takes less time to start running, unlike a typical rigid wall extension which consumes time and finance. The installation of a new production curtain and divider has little or no effect on other processes as they can work efficiently as a new curtain and divider is installed. The installation of a this device normally takes hours or sometimes a few days depending on the size and number of curtains needed in the facility. Compare this to the weeks and months of building a conventional rigid wall extension.

Cost-effective

AKON makes use of reinforced PVC material in manufacturing the production curtain and dividers, making it cost-effective and adaptive to a new process. It is unmatched with the traditional partitioning methods which are far more expensive to build.

Minimal Floor Space

Unlike the traditional curtain partitions, the curtains demand less floor space to support the structure, thereby increasing floor space and maximizing space. AKON production expansion curtains are lightweight and suspended from the ceiling. They can also be free-standing on pedestals if there are overhead obstructions. When used as assembly line curtains they can feature strip door entrances to allow for rapid access.

Minimal Floor Space

Permanent and Portable

One of the major benefits of a factory production curtain is that whilst they are permanent, they can also be moved or relocated to a new process and will adapt without causing any contamination. Its portability makes it flexible for business should the need of business change further, they can adapt to the new developments without major disturbance to manufacturing processes.

Special Purpose

Specific sectors require certain industrial curtain partitioning that can be produced to suit certain situations. Materials used for such sectors should have various properties that should be beneficial and will not cause contamination in sectors such as anti-fungal, food safety, flame resistant thermal and anti-static etc.

Warehouse Partitioning Systems | Top 5 Styles

How to Divide Warehouse Space

A warehouse is a large space and partitioning that space is often required for many different reasons. These can range from production needs, temperature zoning, construction, or even separating tenants. You can use rigid fixed walls, also known as demising walls, or you can use a more flexible and less expensive soft wall. These curtains are the new go to solution for warehouse separation walls due to those key benefits. Below are 5 of the most common applications for warehouse partitions.

Types of Warehouse Partition Systems

Creating New Spaces - Re-Working Floor Space

As the demands for business increases into a new place within a business, companies are likely to search for extra space. For business or companies with such challenge, the most effective way of doing this is through maximizing existing space in the business. There are so many ways a business can take up such challenge this could be by re-configuring the outlook of the warehouse or by enclosure. Of course the previous mentioned methods can take time to install but the AKON segregation curtain system challenges the conventional partition thereby offering a more cost-effective solution; segregation curtains for allergens are quicker and stress free to install. This form of solution is designed to fit around lump and irregular elements too.

Wash Down - Allergens And Food Processing Lines

To maintain hygiene standards in a facility that requires wash down of production lines then a divider is required. One of the production lines generally has to be fully functional while the other line is being cleaned. This however may lead to hygiene issues if segregation is not done properly. The AKON wash down dividers are the solution to proper hygiene maintenance in a facility during these wash down processes. It decreases downtime by creating barriers between production lines (lines in operation and lines being routinely cleaned) thereby maintaining hygiene standard.

Temperature Zones - Separating Warehouse Temperatures

Temperature regulation is common within the pharmaceutical and food industries, where food and drugs are sensitive to slight change in temperature. Making room for more space can be more cost-effective than renting a storage facility, and this existing space more often gives dual functions under the same roof. Therefore segregating the warehouse to regulate temperature is necessary and there is no better way to go about this than installing the Akon warehouse temperature zoning curtains for temperature regulation. The dividers are designed with 5' wide panels with thermal properties responsible for the separation of different temperature or environmental conditions. This method has been used in various project and is widely used in business and companies within the food and pharmaceutical industry.

Construction - Avoid Contamination During Renovation

The only way this can be achieved is only if the facility will continue its normal operation during the installation of a warehouse segregation curtain. However, it will be a nightmare if the operation is ongoing and the renovation work is being carried out in a facility of food, drugs or manufacturing facility. The potential contamination from dust and airborne mess can cause a disaster. To avoid this, it is possible to segregate the work from continuing warehouse processes by using a warehouse segregation curtain divider. The overlap panel system in the divider gives rise to a screen which is responsible for shielding dust and other forms of mess that can cause contamination, it offers 99% dust seal when properly installed. This system is preferable to aluminum stud or masonry partitions and it has been used by food and pharmaceutical producing companies worldwide.

Implementing a control access system offers you the chance of knowing and monitoring who accessed your warehouse. Implementation of access control not only restrict entrance to your facility, it also gives you first -hand information of what happened in your facility and how an incident started with records to refer to.

One good thing about a managed access control is that it allows you to restrict movement of unauthorized personnel/employees, monitor the movement of authorized personnel, limit access to schedule shifts and record access to various points in the facility during each day.

Wireless Weather Software

Food, drugs and storage Industries today, are so much in need of controlling the temperature of their warehouse. Temperature is a major challenge especially in food and drugs facilities, keeping this temperature stable is a priority and as such there is need to regulate the temperature of their facility.

One of the best ways of monitoring this temperature is by the use of a wireless temperature and humidity software, this software checks the range of temperature in a facility. Using the software will enable users to see, set parameters for detecting high or low temperature and export reports, examine and compare data in real time. This software is what every food and drugs business needs, detecting temperature is easily achieved and can be manipulated should the temperature of a production line fluctuate in a facility using this software.

Logistics Tracking

Facilities are supposed to be hazard free place to work but sometimes certain hazards associated with the environment are inevitable, especially if you have a large number of employees and vehicles such as trucks etc. With logistic tracking, you can track the locations of all your facility workers, both pedestrian and vehicle operators. The use of logistic tracking gives you an edge in improving the safety and security of your facility, drive improvement and study performances, provide factual information to increase efficiency.

How to Effectively Maximize Food Production

Health and Safety

When it has to do with food and drugs production, health and safety is a priority. That is why this new separating device is designed without any protruding legs. One interesting feature of the food grade curtains is that they can be all clear or feature a vision panel that allows employees to have a view of what is happening both outside and inside the barrier inside the facility.

Contamination Regulation

In other to avoid contamination of food in the facility, it is advisable to keep at least one production line running during washdown procedures in other production lines. AKON food segragation curtains offers a total segregation from floor to ceiling between two production lines during washdown processes in a facility. Mobile screens and soid curtain walls both have the same function but the effectiveness of the curtain walls is more than the mobile screen, also mobile screens are not floor to ceiling contained and they have multiple penetration points where overspray is concerned; this means they are not as contained as the curtain wall.

Space Maximization

Unlike the mobile screens, the segregating curtains walls are designed to maximize existing space within the facility, they are fixed in a spot to a stainless steel track immediately within the production line. This fact makes the curtain walls quicker to install and be removed with ease without wasting time during washdown procedures and also getting a production line running quickly.

Reduces Food Cross Contamination

Reduce Cross Contamination

It’s important to know the materials used for segregation in any production facility, this will help reduce contamination and checkmate its compatibility with the environment. AKON curtains are made from food safe materials and components which have gone under the thorough procedure of test for use in the food and drugs industry sector. They are tough even when being used multiple times in different production line in the facility. The USDA has made it clear in their requirements and our curtains are manufactured to meet their standard which is to ensure there are no food or water traps.

Other Benefits of Food Curtains

Fast Installation and clean for minimum disturbance.
Can be installed anywhere even on higher grounds.
The curtain and its track make it easier to increase and retract.
You can choose from available operated track options.
All clear or white opaque to match your application needs.
USDA, CFIA, NSF approved material

Multi-purpose

Akon food curtain walls are not just effective but space saving and can be installed and removed easily. However, one of its purpose that stands out is the fact that it can be used to control odor and cross-contamination when two different products are being manufactured adjacent each other. This multi-purpose is tested where production of allergen-containing foods and non-allergen containing foods are adjacent each other in the same facility and there is no room for contamination.

If you have a fairly large curtain system ($5,000-$80,000 ) then you can purchase the curtain system directly from Akon and we can put you in contact with one of our national installers. With this option, your Akon representative would work closely with you to give you guidelines on how to measure for your curtain and discuss hardware mounting options in detail. We find that hardware selection is about 90% of decision making process for industrial curtain systems. As such, we might ask you to email us some digital pictures of your roof deck where you plan to hang the curtains so that we can choose the proper hardware for your project.

After we have determined the correct components for your application, we would then provide you with a detailed quote. After you have reviewed your quote, we would then put you in contact with one of our national installers who you would work directly with to coordinate the installation once the materials have arrived on-site. If you choose this option please ask your Akon sales representatives for a local installer in your area.

Option #3
Purchasing Your Curtain System From a Distributor / Installer

If you have a fairly large curtain system ($2,000-$80,000 ) then you can purchase your curtain system from a local AKON distributor/installer. They will do a site visit before your order is placed to measure and discuss your installation options with you. While this option is going to be more expensive due to the turnkey solution, (about 20% more) we find that some of our customers are extremely busy and can’t be bothered with any downtime or any unforeseen issues. If you choose this option please ask your Akon sales representatives for a local distributor/installer in your area.
