Transform unhealthy environments into productive, safe and human spaces and generate value in your project without using electricity. See how solutionsindustrial natural ventilationcan help you with this challenge.
Industrial environments with excessive heat are inefficient, uncomfortable and expensive. The use ofnatural ventilationis a smart and sustainable solution to combat heat in warehouses. For industrial managers who deal with unhealthy environments, retrofitting with clerestory windows and shutters can completely transform the space, bringing well-being, safety and efficiency.
Why extreme heat is an industrial problem
High temperatures compromise productivity,increase the risk of accidents and increase operating costswith artificial air conditioning. THEABNT NBR 15.215 standardrecommends theair renewal in industrial environments, but many warehouses operate without effective solutions.
Warning signs:
-
- Employees complain of exhaustion and discomfort
- Equipment operates at critical temperatures
-
- High energy consumption for forced air conditioning
-
- Dark and stuffy environments with low air renewal
Industrial retrofit with passive ventilation
The solution is inindustrial retrofit with natural ventilation. Two technologies stand out in this scenario:
MB LANTERN
MB SHUTTERS
Already theMB Industrial Shutters, with fixed or movable fins,ensure controlled natural ventilation, protection against bad weather and also add functional design to facades.
Both are sustainable, highly durable and custom-installed solutions, without the need to stop the warehouse's operation.
Benefits of Lanternim and MB Venetian blinds for industrial projects:
-
- Continuous ventilation without energy consumption
-
- Environments with greater thermal comfort and well-being
-
- Custom installation without interrupting production
-
- High durability and resistance with 5 years warranty
-
- Technical assistance throughout Brazil
Real application in the tube and fittings industry
An existing industrial warehouse that sought solutions to improve environmental conditions, ensuring comfort for employees and reducing operating costs.
The following were installed in the project:
✔ 597.48 linear meters of Domus Linealight (lighting solution), prismatic model
Withlight transmission up to 70%, the system provided aaverage level of 420 lux, ideal for productive environments, reducing the use of artificial lighting during the day.
✔ Flashlight MB 1205
The lanterns were positioned on the ridge and along the waterfall, in addition to being equipped withbird screens, ensuring protection and durability. The sizing was done to deliver10.06 air changes per hour, ensuring constant and efficient natural ventilation.
Results delivered in this Retrofit project:
✔ More thermal comfort and air quality;
✔ Energy savings during the day;
✔ Productive, sustainable environment with low maintenance requirements.
O retrofit with natural ventilation It's not a cost, it's an investment with a guaranteed return.
If your industry suffers from excessive heat, the solution may be in the roof, with a system that transforms heat into comfort and, consequently, quality of life.
