Location: Preston
Sector: Pharmaceutical
Products Used: SST high speed doors

Problem Solved:

Hygiene

Who is the client?

This is a new client to EFAFLEX UK who were recommended to us via their builder as part of a new extension programme. They are a leading manufacturer providing health and beauty products globally. Similar to EFAFLEX, they thrive on finding solutions for complex product development and production needs, working with prestige brands on concept, research, product manufacture and delivery.

This project was an extension to an existing building at their Preston facility, where the client had previous experience of high-speed doors, but looking for an alternative manufacturer with an improved level of customer service and product quality.

Their builder contacted EFAFLEX via our website and a site survey swiftly followed by our regional Business Development Manager to assess the needs of the client and application.

What fast action industrial doors did they choose?

Our SST industrial high-speed doors were chosen, as the client required a door solution that matched the ISO Class 7/8 criteria. Working within the pharmaceutical industry, quality and hygiene are key. Manufactured using stainless steel, our doors are easy to clean, while their fast opening and closing action reduces exposure to the elements.

As a new build, this project was straightforward with no added complexities or complications.

What benefits will this fast action door deliver?

The SST provides the highest wind load capacity; ideal for busy environments where safety and speed are vital to minimise costly downtime and production disruptions.

Capable of up to 250,000 operating cycles, the SST is manufactured to perform, with the near transparent vision panels providing a clear line of sight for operatives as an improved safety feature. In addition, it allows natural light into adjacent areas to improve the work environment.

What are the key benefits of this specific door?

The SST represents a new generation of industrial high-speed doors; combining speed, functionality, performance, and aesthetics to deliver on all fronts.

Were there any specific requirements from this project?

This was a straightforward project for the EFAFLEX UK team, where we worked together alongside the client’s builder from conception to completion.

Further industrial high-speed doors from EFAFLEX are being planned for the near future.
