DUST FREE AREA
September 1st 2004

In 2003 a new bottle blowing area needed to be created for Brecon Beacons Natural Waters within its existing warehouse. This new area had to be protected from contamination as once formed, bottles are automatically fed directly to the clean area where the water is bottled.The company selected a system called Flexipart from Galebreaker.

Engineering maintenance manager, Colin Edwards, knew what he wanted, We had four requirements - good value, flexibility, quick and dust free installation.

The Flexipart system is made from translucent material that gives 60% light transmission with built in fire retardant properties. The new bottle blowing area consists of a three-sided partition 8m high and 40m long, fixed to an existing wall. The whole being tensioned in four directions keeping the material taught and wrinkle free.

Sections are made using the Flexipart v jointing system that makes adding or removing sections easy. Two remote control roller doors, for frequent access and made from the same material were fitted.
