But insects are also uninvited guests outside the food industry, because they can affect the production of films, packaging, coatings and hygiene articles and cause considerable financial damage. Once invaded, their removal is costly and burdens the business over a long period of time. Therefore, it needs reliable protection. ## The best quality assurance: Blocking the way of insects As important as insects are in their ecosystems, they can be just as disruptive outside. Film manufacturers, for example, have to install **elaborate control systems to check their products for damage, production defects or insects.** > Defects that are found lead to **rejects of the goods,** thus increasing **production costs.** Defects that are not found strain the relationship with customers and can damage the company's reputation. To avoid this, a special solution is needed that reliably protects against insects: **SAW Airwalls.** ## Unhindered use of entrances without opening the door to pests SAW Airwalls generate a targeted, strong, laminar air jet that **reliably prevents insects from entering through open doors or gates** without killing the animals. The **protective effect** against insects has been **scientifically tested by the Biocare Institute.** Air walls therefore not only provide **effective protection,** they are also **energy-efficient and can reduce heating and cooling costs.** In addition, they enable the **unhindered use of entrances** – without compromising on insect protection.

[Arrange a consultation appointment](https://www.saw-airwalls.de/en/meeting-general?hsLang=en) ## FAQ How does insect control at industrial doors work? Airwalls create a high-velocity air barrier across door openings. This prevents insects from entering indoor areas while allowing people, goods and vehicles to pass without restriction.  Is insect control possible without chemicals? Yes. Airwalls provide effective insect control without the use of chemicals or pesticides. Instead of killing insects, they prevent them from entering the building in the first place.  Where is insect control at doors typically used? Typical applications include food production, logistics centres, pharmaceutical environments and other hygiene-sensitive areas where insect ingress must be prevented.  How effective is insect control with air barriers? Airwalls have been tested and proven to reliably prevent insects from entering indoor spaces. The air barrier works continuously and does not depend on human behaviour or manual processes. Does insect control affect daily operations? No. Airwalls are designed to protect entrances without restricting workflows, vehicle access or employee movement.
