Overview
AKON's climate-controlled curtains will help you create and maintain a healthy warehouse environment; making work and product storage safer.
Warehouses that store food or medicaments require a temperature-controlled environment. The need for refrigeration makes thermal insulation vital for the well-being of these items.
By using customizable warehouse curtains, you can create temperature zones for specific items, while keeping other zones pleasant for working. Maximise existing space while achieving suitable temperatures elsewhere. Whether for temporary or permanent use, AKON can offer a solution. If you need thermal insulation only for seasonal use, you can always take down and store the curtains. Our custom curtain walls are simple to install and are highly cost-efficient.

How Long Can You Use The Curtains?
Curtain Specifications And Installation
The warehouse insulated curtains have a thermal batting inside of two outer layers of reinforced Vinyl. The material is fire-retardant to meet local and state regulations. Batting thickness depends on your required warehouse temperature separating needs.
Temperature separation is up to 40F. The thicker the batting, the higher the R-value you will achieve. Feel free to ask questions about which R-value is ideal for your warehouse. For instance, if your needs are short term, it is best to choose a lower R-value to reduce costs.
The curtains come in panels that are ‘5 wide that Velcro together from top to bottom. Once connected they form walls that can be in almost configuration. They run from the roof deck to the floor or from the bottom of the joists to the floor. Aluminum angle is the most common mounting method as it quickly attaches to the roof deck. You simply connect the angle to the structure and then use Tek screws with washers to pinch the curtain panels every 12″ to the angle.
