The TurboLux range offers a pleasingly symmetrical and compact design, with transparent door laths manufactured from a clear, high-grade polycarbonate which provides high impact and breakage resistance.

Union Industries, the UK’s leading manufacturer of bespoke industrial doors, has helped Sonoco introduce more efficient operating procedures with the installation of its high speed Ramdoor. It represents a first for the paper mill in Halifax, West Yorkshire, which recycles wastepaper and cardboard – converting it into a range of useful products. With efficiency in mind, Union’s rugged Ramdoor replaced a slow and outdated roller shutter door, at the same time helping with the segregation of pedestrian and vehicular traffic.
York Warehouse was founded in 1902 and specialises in online retailing of sports equipment and sportswear distributing orders and brands such as Nike, Mitre, and Ziland from their York facility. They first were introduced to the Efaflex brand while visiting the PPMA trade show; seeing the high-speed doors in motion and having the opportunity to sense the build quality and performance. Having completed a site visit, Efaflex recommended the SRT-Eco door, which is ideal for customers looking to create zoned working areas or act as demarcation to minimise contamination or airflow.
As more doors are introduced across the UK’s warehouses, we trust the highest standards of safety are maintained.
