Hygienic warehouse partitioning for food production

Sweetdreams Confectionery Ltd partners with Westgate Global to design and install a hygienic, full-height partition system separating the company’s warehouse from its food production lines. Using a PVC partition wall at low level and a tensioned Flexiwall above, supported by a purpose-built steel structure, the solution provided complete floor-to-ceiling coverage while meeting strict hygiene regulations.

Cleanrooms were also integrated into the design to support operational efficiency. The entire project was completed within six weeks, with minimal disruption to Sweetdreams’ ongoing production.

Flexiwall system offers floor-to-ceiling contamination protection

Leading food production company Sweetdreams Confectionery Ltd required a robust, hygienic solution to clearly separate its warehouse from its production lines. The tall warehouse structure presented additional complexity, as the partition needed to ensure complete coverage from floor to ceiling, while the project scope also included the installation of cleanrooms to support operational efficiency.

To achieve this, Sweetdreams sought a reliable partner to deliver a high-quality solution with minimal disruption to their operations. Following a comprehensive survey, Westgate Global proposed a customised approach using a combination of a PVC partition wall and Flexiwall. 

The PVC partition wall was installed at the lower section of the warehouse up to a height of 8.8ft, to provide a durable, washable and hygienic barrier.

In line with our structural engineers’ recommendations, a steel structure was installed to support the PVC partition and provide the stability required for the installation of Flexiwall above. Extending from the top of the PVC panels to the ceiling, Flexiwall is a smart alternative to traditional fixed wall systems, using tensioned fabric to create distinct zones, prevent cross-contamination, manage temperature, and reduce noise.

This combined approach resulted in a seamless, secure full-height partition, ensuring complete segregation between the warehouse and food production areas while complying with hygiene regulations. 

Cleanroom integration enhances operational efficiency

Westgate Global also integrated cleanrooms into the design, enhancing the facility’s functionality and supporting Sweetdreams’ operational goals.

The project was completed within a rapid 6-week timeline from ordering, minimising production downtime and disruption. Key outcomes included:

Enhanced hygiene standards: The combination of Hoardfast and Flexiwall ensured a hygienic and effective barrier between operational zones.

Optimised facility layout: Cleanrooms were seamlessly integrated into the solution, adding value to Sweetdreams’ production capabilities.

Efficient installation: Despite the project’s complexity, Westgate Global delivered on time, highlighting their expertise in large-scale warehouse modifications.

Westgate Global’s ability to deliver a comprehensive, flexible, and hygienic warehouse solution set them apart. By addressing all aspects of Sweetdreams’ requirements – tall warehouse partitions, hygiene compliance, and cleanroom integration – Westgate Global demonstrated its commitment to delivering high-quality, tailored solutions.
