Data sheet
What are the benefits of a hermetically sealed sliding door?
Hygiene control: The SLX-D have a very tight seal and contact-free control to offer strict contamination control.
Temperature regulation: For environments with sensitive climates, the hermetically sealed door provides temperature control from room to room.
Ease of use: Effortless entry and exit with sensors that allow hands-free operation.
Energy efficiency: Features like the sensors minimise heat loss as they detect the presence of individuals, enabling the doors to open only when necessary.
Compliance with regulations: To comply with safety standards, our doors are equipped with features to enhance safety and security during operation.
What kind of businesses benefit from a hermetically sealed door?
Hermetically sealed doors are highly specialised and provide critical benefits for businesses and facilities where contamination control, temperature regulation, and secure environments are essential.
Here are the types of companies and sectors that benefit most from these doors:
Healthcare facilities & hospitals
These doors are vital in operating rooms, isolation wards, and laboratories to maintain sterile conditions, prevent cross-contamination, and control air pressure to protect patients and staff.
Pharmaceutical manufacturing
In pharmaceutical plants, where precise environmental control is necessary to prevent contamination during drug production, hermetically sealed doors ensure cleanroom integrity and regulatory compliance.
Biotechnology & research laboratories
These facilities require airtight environments to conduct sensitive experiments, protect against contamination, and maintain strict cleanliness standards.
Food processing plants
Hermetically sealed doors help maintain hygiene standards by preventing external contaminants from entering controlled areas, ensuring the safety and quality of food products.
Cleanrooms in various industries
Any industry that uses cleanrooms, such as aerospace, optics, and nanotechnology, benefits from hermetically sealed doors to maintain contamination-free environments and ensure product quality.
Modern door sealing technology
During the door’s closing movement, the pivoting mechanism integrated into the drive unit causes the wing to be simultaneously lowered and pressed against the door frame. The wing’s lowering movement and all-around gaskets give the door a hermetic seal.
The drive mechanism, door leaf surface and seals have been designed to withstand all commonly used cleaning products and the rounded shape of the aluminium drive cover ensures any residue cleaning product will run off.
