Flexible Industrial Partitioning Systems

The RapidFireWall is Mercia Industrial's flagship flexible partitioning system, engineered for busy manufacturing and warehousing environments that demand adaptability without sacrificing safety. Constructed from heavy-duty industrial-grade PVC curtain panels suspended on a robust steel tracking system, it can be deployed, repositioned, or removed in a fraction of the time required for traditional fixed partition walls. The system is available in fire-retardant grades meeting BS EN 1021 and LPS 1207 standards, making it suitable for use in environments where fire safety is a regulatory requirement.

• ✓Fire-retardant PVC panels meeting BS EN 1021 and LPS 1207 standards
• ✓Ceiling-mounted steel track — no floor fixings required
• ✓Configurable in straight, L, or U-shaped runs

ThermalShield is Mercia Industrial's premium insulated partitioning system, designed for facilities that need to maintain distinct temperature zones within a single building. From refrigerated storage areas that must be kept below 4 °C to warm production cells that must stay above 18 °C, ThermalShield creates thermally broken enclosures that slash energy costs and improve working conditions simultaneously. The system uses twin-skin insulated PVC panels with a closed-cell foam core, delivering U-values as low as 0.4 W/m²K depending on panel thickness and configuration.

• ✓Twin-skin insulated PVC panels with closed-cell foam core
• ✓U-values as low as 0.4 W/m²K depending on configuration
• ✓Integrated door options: strip curtains, roller doors, swing doors

The RapidSlider is Mercia Industrial's retractable fabric wall system, providing on-demand space division that can be opened or closed in seconds. Unlike fixed or semi-permanent partition systems, the RapidSlider operates on an overhead sliding track that allows heavy-duty industrial fabric panels to be stacked neatly at one or both ends of the run when not needed, returning the full floor space to single-zone use. This makes it the ideal solution for facilities that need to divide space during certain shifts or operations but require full open-plan access at other times.

• ✓Retractable fabric panels on overhead sliding track
• ✓Opens or closes in seconds — single-person operation
• ✓Available in widths from 3 m to 60 m+ (motorised for large spans)

Mercia Industrial's PVC StripDoor range provides the most cost-effective and practical access solution for high-traffic doorways in warehouses, factories, cold stores, and food production facilities. Constructed from overlapping strips of flexible PVC, the StripDoor creates a barrier that can be passed through by personnel, forklifts, pallet trucks, or conveyors without any need to open a door — strips simply part on contact and immediately return to their resting position, maintaining the thermal, acoustic, and pest-exclusion properties of a closed barrier at all times.

• ✓Overlapping PVC strip construction — hands-free access at all times
• ✓Available from 600 mm wide pedestrian doors to 5 m wide forklift bays
• ✓Standard, cold-store (-30 °C), anti-static, and food-grade strip options
