Ferroflex, high-speed doors for logistics and storage in the food industry
The high-speed doors from Ferroflex, a Manusa company, guarantee efficient logistics flow and controlled storage conditions in highly demanding environments.
The food industry faces the challenge of maintaining a constant, safe and uninterrupted flow of goods. From logistics centres to processing plants and storage chambers, efficient access is key to ensuring traceability, food safety and resource optimisation. In this context, Ferroflex high-speed doors have established themselves as a versatile solution that improves daily operations and reduces unexpected costs.
Both during periods of high activity, such as promotional campaigns or seasonal peaks in demand, and in the day-to-day management of warehouses and production lines, Ferroflex high-speed doors allow for the smooth flow of people, goods and machinery, ensuring continuity in the production and logistics process.
How to ensure speed and efficiency in the flow of goods
Ferroflex high-speed doors stand out for their opening and closing speed, which prevents temperature loss between areas. This is a key factor in the food sector, which must guarantee the good condition of its products. For external access points to the warehouse, the stackable high-speed door is perfect due to its resistance and adaptability to large spaces.
Another very necessary aspect is being able to divide the different areas into sectors, according to the environmental conditions required. For the interior of the building, there are different models that prevent draughts, maintain environmental conditions and ensure the comfort of workers.
More specifically, if conditions in certain spaces need to be controlled, Ferroflex offers solutions that compartmentalise temperature differences of up to 25 degrees, such as high-speed doors for storage chambers up to 0 degrees and cold chambers down to -30 degrees.
On the other hand, the intensity of machinery movement can cause the curtains to come off their guides due to minor collisions with the door. To address this situation, Ferroflex offers a range of self-repairing high-speed doors, whose curtain automatically re-enters the guides when it is rolled up. This system is very useful in high-traffic, confined spaces, as well as during peak periods, such as the upcoming Christmas season.
Finally, Ferroflex high-speed doors ensure safety thanks to sensors and automatic stop systems that reduce incidents and unplanned stoppages. Additionally, in environments with a certain risk of fire, the EI120 fire curtain high-speed door provides fire protection. This model integrates a self-repairing door and a fireproof curtain in the same head. In a normal situation, the fire curtain remains rolled up and the door functions as a self-repairing model, but in the event of a fire alarm being activated, the fire curtain unrolls, offering protection for at least 120 minutes.
It should be noted that to ensure long-lasting performance, Ferroflex offers preventive maintenance plans with regular inspections that are tailored to the needs of each project.
Optimisation and energy efficiency
The characteristics of high-speed doors ensure stable climate control, thereby increasing energy efficiency. The high opening and closing speed, thermal insulation and resistance to environmental factors such as wind help reduce energy consumption.
From loading docks to cold storage rooms, Ferroflex high-speed doors are a strategic ally for food industry companies seeking efficiency, safety and environmental control. Their reliability in demanding environments, combined with the technological innovation of Manusa, of which Ferroflex is a part, makes them a benchmark in industrial access solutions adapted to modern logistics.
