Union Industries rises to the challenge with triple Bulldoor installation at Warburtons
Union Industries , the UK ’ s leading manufacturer of bespoke high-speed doors , has helped Britain ’ s largest bakery brand overcome adverse weather conditions with the installation of three Bulldoors .
Led by the fifth generation of the Warburton family , the company approached Union to assist in combating strong winds at its Burnley site , which already has a Bulldoor as well as two Matadoors from the range .
It first approached Union Industries in 2004 to install a Bulldoor , which continues to operate effectively and efficiently two decades later .
Union ’ s Bulldoors , regarded as the ‘ reliable workhorse ’ of rapid roll doors , are known to perform more than 1.4 million cycles per year , making them a popular choice across multiple sectors . They feature specialist ‘ Crash-Out ’ and ‘ Auto-Reset ’ damage protection facilities , and offer control outputs for options such as airlocks , traffic control systems and remote monitoring , whilst aiding temperature control for ambient and chilled environments .

The market-leading , bespoke , high-speed roller doors help to prevent the severe drop of ambient temperature in buildings , especially evident in the winter months , eliminating any potential impact on production environments .
Steve Moultrie , Technical Sales Engineer at Union Industries , said : “ This collaboration marks the continuation of a longstanding partnership between Union Industries and Warburtons , dating back 20 years , which is testament to our dedication to durability and quality craftsmanship .
“ We are proud to have provided Warburtons with a reliable solution to their operational challenges . Our doors are engineered to perform in demanding environments , ensuring continuous productivity and efficiency .”
Ryan Seddon , Asset Care Lead at Warburtons , said : “ The triple Bulldoor installation has significantly improved our warehouse operations , particularly during adverse weather conditions . Union Industries ’ doors are incomparable to any other doors we have installed , and their commitment to quality and innovation has made them a valued partner in our supply chain .” www . unionindustries . co . uk
