Description
Polyethylene swing door for heavy traffic in the food industry
Swing doors are the most practical passage solution for areas with heavy staff traffic in food industries, workshops and production areas. Unlike conventional hinged doors, swing doors open in both directions, allowing people to pass without stopping to push the door, which makes work much easier for staff with their hands full. Their lock-free design makes passage completely smooth and unobstructed.
Technical specifications
- Type: polyethylene (PE) swing door, maximum impact resistance
- Material: high-density polyethylene (HDPE), the plastic with the highest impact resistance
- Operating temperature: -20 °C to +50 °C (suitable for refrigerated areas)
- High resistance to impacts from trolleys, pallet trucks and machinery
- Reinforced return hinge system for heavy traffic
- Available with PMMA vision panel (optional)
Advantages
✔ The highest impact resistance available in swing doors
✔ Suitable for areas with trolley and pallet truck traffic
✔ Works at negative temperatures (refrigerated areas, freezer anterooms)
✔ Long service life even under extreme use
✔ Smooth, easy-to-clean surface with no cracks or pores
Applications
Passages between cold rooms and production rooms; distribution access with trolleys and pallet trucks; meat and fish industry with heavy equipment traffic; distribution corridors in large food processing plants.
FAQs
Can I install a polyethylene swing door in the anteroom of a freezer room?
Yes. High-density polyethylene keeps its flexibility and impact resistance down to -20 °C, so it is suitable for anterooms and negative-temperature areas. It is one of the few plastics that does not become brittle or crack at low temperatures under the usual conditions of a refrigeration installation.
