High Quality Dock Seals From Chalfant
Quality Dock Seals to Experience Superior Air Flow Efficiency
While Saving Big on Energy Cost!
Maintaining the right internal docking facility temperature is extremely important as continuous flow of air passing in and out from even the smallest of gaps and openings can cost you big in every sense of the word.
Your inability to maintain a suitable temperature and control air flow around your dock can lower your employee productivity, as hot or cold temperatures that infiltrate your facility can lead to employee discomfort which can impact their performance negatively.
Also, due to small gaps, it takes more time for the HVAC systems to achieve the right temperature. And running these systems for long hours can lead to skyrocketing energy bills. Besides this, employee safety and shipment security can also be at risk.
The infiltration of snow through small openings can make the dock flooring slippery—making it absolutely unsafe for workers to move around, while the opening area between the warehouse and trucks can increase the risk of thefts and pilferage.
