With conserving energy being a focal talking point through all industries, it is clear that efforts have to be made now to make these changes for the future.

With the assistance of the Carbon Trust it has been proven that by installing our high speed doors the effects of energy loss is significantly reduced. Evidence has shown that if a standard door in operation is open for just a few minutes it can take upto 10 minutes from the time the door is closed to for the temperature to recover.

By installing an automatic high speed door this ensures that the door is only open when needed and for a limited time thus reducing the amount of heat being lost through the opening. Each door installed can be individually tailored so that they open and close in accordance to your specific requirements.

High speed doors help create a more comfortable working environment by retaining heat in the colder periods and preventing the spreading of dusts and debris through the workplace.
For companies who are looking to make energy saving improvements in their workplace the Carbon Trust offer an Enhanced Capitol Allowance scheme to encourage this type of investment.

Example
A warehousing company has a profit margin of 5% of costs, whilst energy is roughly 10% of total costs. Following some energy efficiency improvements the warehouse has reduced their energy costs from 10% to 9%. This 1% decrease in overall costs means that the warehouse's profit margin increases from 5% to 6%, a rise of 20%.
