At Biddle, we understand the importance of easy and safe access to cold stores while ensuring a constant temperature and minimising misting and icing-up. That's why we have developed patented climate products specifically designed to create the best climate separation between the cold store and the ambient environment. Our innovative solutions ensure a laminar airflow that covers the entire open door, preventing the mixing of warm and cold air between the two rooms.
The IsolAir chilled room air curtain is the ideal solution for indoor climate separation that doesn't require heating.
By installing an IsolAir model above the doorway, you can achieve effective separation between two temperature zones while minimising energy consumption. This air curtain is specifically designed for indoor climate separation in applications such as production companies, distribution centres, and small cold stores in supermarkets.
Cold storage environments, and supermarket cold chain applications more generally, present unique challenges outside the typical air curtain remit. These include high temperature deltas and the impact of humidity on equipment and cold rooms.

Yes, the MAT cold store air curtain creates a laminar airflow that covers the entire door opening, keeping cold air in and warm air out even when the door is open for extended periods. It also significantly cuts down on misting and ice formation at the entrance, which makes access safer and easier for staff.
Compared to an open door with no air curtain in place, the MAT cold store air curtain can deliver around 52% energy savings on average.
The main differences between the IsolAir and MAT air curtains are the application. The IsolAir air curtain is designed for indoor climate separation where heating is not required, separating two temperature zones within a building, such as a production area and a chilled room. The MAT air curtain is built specifically for cold store environments and is better suited to situations where you need to maintain a very low temperature inside while doors open directly to a warmer loading or ambient area.
Yes, reducing mist and ice at the door opening is one of the key applications the MAT air curtain is designed for.
Yes, the IsolAir air curtain is specifically built for indoor climate separation. It sits above the doorway and maintains a clear temperature boundary between two internal zones without the need for heating. It is commonly used in production facilities, distribution centres, and supermarket cold rooms where the door is between two internal spaces rather than to the outside.
No major changes are needed, as the units are installed above the door opening and work alongside your existing setup. We also provide a full service from initial assessment through to installation and ongoing support, so our helpful experts will advise on the best approach for your specific doorway dimensions and usage needs before anything is fitted.
