The Multiporten™ as an effective weather barrier at Cargo Center, Arlanda
Large logistics centres and loading bays often face the exact same complex challenge: how do you maintain a consistent indoor climate and reduce energy losses when doors must constantly remain open for an intensive flow of goods? When Cargo Center at Arlanda needed a smart and sustainable solution, the choice fell on Industridraperier’s Multiport™ – a bespoke weather barrier in their loading bay that perfectly combines energy efficiency with operational flexibility.
A fully custom-made solution
The solution was a custom-made Multiport™ that we manufactured and installed on-site. The upper section is tailored precisely to the ceiling structure to completely eliminate gaps where warm air could escape.
The curtain’s durable PVC strips feature a precisely calculated width and overlap based on the height of the opening. This ensures they seal tightly against the cold when at rest, yet part smoothly for conveyor belts, forklifts, and personnel without slowing down the logistics flow.
High safety with transparent strips
On a busy loading bay, good visibility is absolutely critical for safety. By using fully transparent PVC strips, Cargo Center maintains a complete overview of the entire area. Personnel and forklift drivers can clearly see what is happening on the other side of the barrier before passing through, minimising the risk of accidents in high-traffic zones.
Major financial and working environment benefits
The Multiport™ significantly reduces heat loss through open doorways, making it a highly cost-effective investment. Furthermore, the Multiport™ is designed so that individual strips that become worn or damaged over time can be easily replaced.
