Smoke Draft Curtains
Smoke Draft Curtains for Warehouses and Industrial Facilities
Draft curtains, also known as fire containment curtains, are essential safety solutions used in warehouses, aircraft hangars, and large industrial facilities. They are specifically designed to control and slow down the upward spread of smoke during a fire, channeling it effectively toward ventilation systems or sprinklers. Commonly made from 1800 degree resistant flame-retardant fiberglass, or silica cloth, these draft curtains combine durability with fire protection.
Smoke Draft Curtains Designed for Warehouses
Fixed fabric draft curtains are tailored to contain smoke within designated areas, preventing it from spreading to other zones. Their lightweight design offers a practical alternative to heavy materials like steel sheeting while ensuring maximum efficiency. These Smoke draft curtains consist of overlapping panels that provide a seamless barrier. These curtains are attached using clamps and angle pieces, ensuring a continuous run. Weighted bottoms maintain tension, reducing sagging caused by air currents and ensuring optimal performance during an emergency.
