Polar Grade PVC Strip Curtains for Cold Rooms – Benefits & Best Practices

Maintaining consistent sub-zero temperatures inside a cold room or walk-in freezer is critical for industries like food processing, pharmaceuticals, dairy, frozen storage, and logistics.

But standard PVC strip curtains often become brittle, rigid, or cracked at such low temperatures.

The solution?
Polar Grade PVC Strip Curtains – specifically designed for cold storage environments.

🧊 What Are Polar Grade PVC Strip Curtains?

Polar grade strips are flexible PVC curtains engineered to stay soft, clear, and functional even at temperatures as low as -25°C.

These curtains:

• Prevent warm air ingress

• Minimize frost formation

• Help reduce energy loss

• Support hygienic separation of zones

Chronovex manufactures premium polar-grade curtains, widely used in cold rooms across India’s food and pharma sectors.

❄ Why Are Standard PVC Curtains Not Suitable?

Regular PVC begins to stiffen and shrink at temperatures below 5°C.
At sub-zero levels:

• Strips may crack or harden

• Reduced flexibility affects sealing

• Safety risks arise from sharp, rigid edges

• Overall effectiveness drops drastically

Hence, for temperatures below 0°C, polar PVC is mandatory.

✅ Benefits of Polar Grade Curtains in Cold Rooms

1. 🧊 Stays Flexible Down to -25°C

Even in deep freezers, strips remain soft and safe for daily movement of goods and personnel.

2. 🚫 Prevents Frost Build-Up

By sealing cold rooms effectively, it prevents external warm air from entering and forming condensation or frost.

3. 💸 Saves Energy & Reduces Load on Compressors

Prevents temperature fluctuation, reducing compressor cycles and cutting electricity bills by up to 25%.

4. 🔄 Improves Workflow Efficiency

Forklifts, trolleys, and workers can pass through freely without opening or closing doors.

5. 🧼 Ensures Hygiene and Safety

Maintains cold chain compliance in food, dairy, pharma, and ice storage operations.
