Food and beverage manufacturing imposes some of the most demanding requirements on industrial partition systems. Hygiene is non-negotiable: all surfaces must be cleanable, non-porous, and free of crevices that could harbour bacteria. Temperature control is equally critical, whether maintaining cold chain integrity in a chilled production environment or ensuring a heated zone for proofing and cooking processes. And for facilities seeking BRCGS, STS 24801, or Red Tractor certification, the partitioning system must meet documented hygiene standards.
Mercia Industrial supplies food-grade PVC curtain systems, insulated ThermalShield partitions with food-safe coatings, and EC 1935/2004-compliant PVC StripDoors to food and beverage manufacturers across the UK. Our installation teams understand the time-pressured nature of food production schedules and plan all works to minimise disruption to production, including out-of-hours and weekend installation where required.
Typical Applications in Food & Beverage
Food-grade PVC StripDoors on all entry points to production areas to comply with BRCGS pest exclusion requirements
ThermalShield insulated partition walls separating ambient dry goods storage from chilled production areas
RapidFireWall systems creating dust-free zones around high-care production lines
Blue anti-contamination strip curtains in meat processing and ready meal production facilities
Retractable RapidSlider walls enabling rapid cleaning and reconfiguration between production runs
