As a core link connecting manufacturing and export, export processing zones have higher requirements for the efficiency and safety of the factory area passageways. Especially in logistics passageways and workshop entrances and exits, high-speed doors have gradually replaced traditional doors and become the preferred solution for improving passage efficiency, energy conservation, environmental protection, and dust and temperature control.
So, why are high-speed door indispensable in export processing zone? How should you choose the right product? This article will provide an in-depth analysis.
Why must export processing zones use high-speed doors?
High traffic frequency makes ordinary doors unsuitable
Export processing zones experience frequent entry and exit of container trucks, forklifts, and manual logistics vehicles, with door openings and closings often reaching hundreds of times per day. Traditional sliding doors or roller shutters open slowly, wear out quickly, and have a short service life. High-frequency rapid doors, with opening speeds of 1.0–2.0 m/s, significantly reduce waiting times and enhance shipping efficiency.
Strict environmental control requirements
Production workshops in processing zones typically have specific requirements for temperature, humidity, and cleanliness. Rapid doors feature sealed structures and PVC door curtains, effectively isolating dust and airflow to maintain stable workshop conditions.
High requirements for intelligent integration
Export processing zones often adopt ERP + warehouse logistics integration systems, requiring door systems to support automatic sensing, ground magnetic linkage, AGV control, and other forms of integration. Modern logistics rapid channels can integrate infrared, radar, and light curtain sensors to achieve fully contactless passage.
Recommended Application Scenarios
Warehouse Shipping Area
We recommend high-seal rapid doors to ensure efficient entry and exit while preventing external dust and pests from entering.
Workshop Connection Area
Use double-sided sensor activation to improve the convenience of personnel and equipment passage, and support nighttime protection mode.
Temperature-Controlled Area Entrance
Choose insulated door curtains or add insulated cotton cores to improve the thermal insulation and heat retention of the door.
What type of high-speed doors are suitable for export processing zones?
Zipper-type self-repairing high-speed doors
The door curtain features an automatic reset function, making it suitable for areas with frequent forklift collisions, thereby reducing maintenance frequency.
Lightweight and flexible, suitable for internal partitioning, with quick response times and low operational noise.
Accumulation-type large high-speed doors
Suitable for logistics channels or large-sized door openings, with excellent wind resistance.
For high-end export-oriented industrial zones, such as electronics, food, pharmaceuticals, and apparel industries, it is recommended to choose customizable industrial rapid doors tailored to specific door opening dimensions, opening/closing frequency, and environmental temperature requirements. SEPPES provides a full range of customized industrial rapid door solutions, which have been successfully applied in multiple export processing zone projects across Southeast Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East.
Summary
High-speed doors in export processing zones are not only a basic configuration, but also an efficient channel connecting internal production and external exports. When selecting a model, it is important to consider not only speed and frequency but also door structure, supporting intelligent systems, and long-term maintenance costs.
