Warehouse upgrade at Vulcan Estate with HVP75 Industrial Roller Shutters

Vulcan Estate in Exeter houses various industrial and commercial buildings, that are all being refurbished as part of a project that seeks to also increase the buildings' energy efficiency. We're installing industrial grade, insulated roller shutters to help secure the premises as well as keep the elements out.

Project requirements

Warehouses always need to secure their valuable assets while ensuring efficient access to loading bays and entrances. As part of Vulcan Estate's comprehensive refurbishment project, enhancing energy efficiency is also a high priority.

So the need to insulate units for energy conservation while ensuring top-notch security at the goods entrances was crucial for this project. Additionally, providing businesses within the estate with solutions that promote operational efficiency and convenience was essential too.

To address these needs, we proposed the HVP75 Industrial Roller Shutter, a robust and versatile security solution specifically designed for industrial applications.

Introducing the HVP 75 Insulated Industrial Security Roller Shutter

The HVP75 Industrial Insulated 3 Phase Roller Shutter, perfectly addresses Vulcan Estate's requirements. Three units within the estate have already benefited from the installation of these shutters, with plans to install them at more units in the near future.

The shutters provide an ideal blend of security, energy efficiency, and accessibility. The interlocking lath construction ensures good security, safeguarding businesses against unauthorized access and intruders. And the insulated design not only enhances energy efficiency, but also regulates internal temperatures, creating a more comfortable indoors environment.

The Importance of Energy Efficiency in Transforming Older Buildings

In today's world energy efficiency has become increasingly important for businesses. It not only reduces their carbon footprint, but also operational costs.

Older industrial buildings, like the ones at Vulcan Estate, often struggle with energy inefficiency due to outdated construction methods and materials. These buildings tend to lack proper insulation, allowing heat to escape during winters and enter during summers, leading to increased energy consumption.

Inefficient temperature regulation not only results in higher utility bills but also puts additional stress on heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, leading to their premature wear and tear.

However, the introduction of solutions like our Insulated Roller Shutters helps transform the energy landscape for older buildings. These shutters act as a robust barrier against external temperature fluctuations. By incorporating insulated laths, they help create a thermal barrier, preventing heat loss during colder months and minimizing heat gain in summers.

By combining insulated roller shutters with other measures, such as natural light through roof windows and energy-efficient LED lighting, significant energy savings are possible, which can give older warehouses a new life. Such a holistic approach to energy efficiency not only makes these older buildings more environmentally friendly but also cuts down operational costs.

So the installation of insulated roller shutters is an important step in the journey toward transforming older industrial buildings into energy-efficient and economically viable spaces.
