Winery Workers Stay Warm With Air Curtain Installation
Royal Wine’s food processing and distribution center authorities responded to employee wintertime requests for a warmer shipping area. In the process, they received a bonus when the six dock door air curtains appropriated for air comfort also reduced operational energy costs.
Sub-freezing days near open shipping doors previously required heavy clothing, hampered worker productivity, and caused chilling air drafts regardless of portable truck and dock seals, according to Abraham Wechter, plant engineer at Royal Wine Corp. (Bayonne, NJ).
