Facilitating the fast and efficient movement of goods. Minimising the risk of incidents. Increasing workflow. Automatic activation. Creating a safe environment and protecting operatives around high-risk machinery. These are just some of the reasons why EFAFLEX have become the partner of choice for customers operating within the processing or logistics sector.

EFAFLEX UK Limited returns to the Packing Machinery and Manufacturing Show (PPMA) from 28 -30 September where three of their most popular high-speed doors used within the packing and processing sector will be in action. Darren Turrell, UK Managing Director helps to explain, ‘Warehouse and logistics clients operate in an environment that continually expects shorter and shorter delivery lead times, while finding ways to improve and streamline processes, enhance operational performance and bottom line. It’s a fact that the transportation and storage industry have more incidents involving workplace vehicles than any other sector.’

Turrell continues, ‘There is nothing quite like seeing our high-speed doors in action. PPMA gives us this opportunity to meet with customers and discuss their specific requirements. Each order is manufactured bespoke to the customer requirements. Our high-speed doors are a premium brand, but when you factor in the whole life cost savings, such as radically reduced energy costs due to their operating speeds and insulation properties, they are a cost-effective option. 60% of our orders are from customers who have made this calculation and chosen to replace old roller shutters or overhead sectional doors because of the many benefits that an EFAFLEX door will offer.'

Consider too that incidents not only can cause injuries to people, but they can result in unwanted costly downtime, which can have an unexpected knock-on effect that ripples throughout the processing facility.

Key features of EFAFLEX processing & logistics solutions:
• A complete range of doors to suit every aspect of the facility
• Internal roll up doors or exterior spiral and folding models available
• Machine Protection solutions to add safety in higher risk areas
• A range of activation methods to suit your needs

Where safety and speed are critical. Temperature control and ease of cleaning are vital. The EFAFLEX range of interior and exterior doors offers the complete solution; from loading bay to logistics, production to packaging.
