Brightec BlueSeal Air Curtain for Multi-Drop Refrigerated Vehicles
Innovative Air Curtains for Temperature-Controlled Deliveries
Maintain the cold chain without compromise
Air curtains provide an invisible yet highly effective barrier across open rear doors, helping to retain internal temperature and minimise energy loss during deliveries. Unlike traditional PVC strips, this solution doesn’t hinder loading or unloading, allowing drivers to move freely while protecting chilled or frozen goods. By reducing the workload on refrigeration units, they can also cut fuel consumption and overall energy usage.
Critical energy savings where it matters most
Every time a vehicle door opens, the risk of temperature loss increases – especially when the ambient air outside is warmer. This is where air curtain technology excels. By actively preventing warm air ingress and cold air escape, it reduces the strain on the vehicle’s cooling system at the most vulnerable moment in the delivery process. This translates to lower operational costs and a meaningful contribution to a more sustainable logistics chain.
A seamless experience for delivery drivers
Designed with driver convenience in mind, air curtains create a clear path in and out of the load space. There’s no need to push aside or wrestle with plastic strips, and with the air barrier in place, goods remain protected throughout the drop. Unlike passive systems like PVC which allow the cold air to dissipate during access, active air curtains help retain a controlled climate consistently – proven to preserve product freshness for longer.
Engineered in the Netherlands with precision and care
Developed by a specialist team with a background in physics and energy optimisation, these air curtains are custom-built in the Netherlands for each vehicle. Precision-engineered to fit perfectly and perform reliably, they combine smart design with durable construction – offering operators a robust, long-term solution to climate management in temperature-controlled transport.
Independent tests confirm impressive energy savings
Third-party research has validated the effectiveness of this technology. A 2019 study by Brunel University and the Centre for Sustainable Energy Use in Food Chains recorded energy recovery savings of between 30% and 45% in an 18-tonne refrigerated vehicle. This reinforces the value of air curtain systems as a proven method to reduce cooling demands and preserve product quality during transit.
