…pomegranates, persimmons and grapes. “The fabric duct looks very streamlined and high tech, which is good because it’s very visible as guests look beyond it and out over the operation from the mezzanine.” An even airflow was a major consideration because the space’s 7-foot-high headroom, support columns and ceiling structure required ductwork to be mounted outside the 4,600-square-foot mezzanine and…

…better results. These flexible, temperature-separating fabric doors store inside a one-piece radial header above the opening, which minimizes the door’s overall footprint. Using motion sensors, the doors automatically operate when a forklift or employee approaches and then shut behind them after safe passage. To exit, employees simply activate the door with a push button or pull cord. The quick cycle…

…expectations, driven by a digital fabric, a super-agile supply chain and a crowd of end users who want parts as fast as possible. Perry points out that since the industrial revolution, manufacturing companies have sold and mass-produced products that are the same design. That was then. This is now, though. “The problem with that model is that people don’t want…

This fabric is documented to be 10 times more abrasion resistant than standard fabrics, says Rich Schlesinger, manager U.S. distribution sales loading dock products. The problem with standard fabric, Schlesinger explains, is not trailers tearing the material. Instead, most damage occurs because of repeated up and down movement of trailers while they are pressed…
