Size Really Does Matter (in Industrial PVC)!

When it comes to industrial PVC, let’s face it - size really does matter.

If you’ve ever struggled with poorly fitting strip curtains or struggled to seal off a space effectively, you’ll know that getting the right size replacement PVC strip or sheeting isn’t just about looks - it’s about efficiency, safety, and compliance.

Whether repairing a worn-out curtain, sealing off a new area or upgrading your existing system, Strip Curtains Direct now offers a wider range of replacement PVC strips and flat-clear PVC sheeting to suit your exact needs.

Here’s everything you need to know to get the perfect fit, first time.

What Are Replacement PVC Strips, and When Do You Need Them?

Strip Replacement vs. Full Curtain Kits

If your existing curtain rail is still in good shape, you don't need to replace the whole system. Just order replacement PVC strips, unhook the old ones and install new ones in minutes. It's cost-effective, quick, and extends the life of your doorway barrier. If your facility stores hazardous substances or has temperature-sensitive areas, proper sealing plays a role in meeting the COSHH regulations set out by the UK Health and Safety Executive.

Signs It’s Time to Replace

• Discolouration or yellowing

• Cracks, splits, or curled edges

• Reduced insulation or visibility

• Poor pest or noise control

When these issues start to show, replacing individual strips is a smart and efficient fix.

New Replacement Strip Sizes Now Available

To help you find the perfect match, Strip Curtains Direct now stocks an expanded range of strip sizes and lengths, making it easier than ever to replace worn or damaged strips with a precise fit.

These extended options ensure you can match the original curtain layout exactly—no awkward overlaps, gaps, or unnecessary cutting on-site.
