Sliding door walls in the spotlight at potato trade fairs

For potato growers, volume is key. How do you stack as many crates as possible into the storage cell? And how do you move them in and out as quickly as possible? This year, we're showing you exactly that at no fewer than three potato trade fairs.

Aardappel Demodag – 2 September 2026 – Westmaas, the Netherlands (stand 40)
Potato Europe – 9–10 September 2026 – Springe, Germany (stand ZB32)
Interpom – 29 November–1 December 2026 – Kortrijk, Belgium (stand 600C)

Sliding doors for optimal storage

This is where the PKD-100s sliding door walls come in. Made from steel-clad sandwich panels, these doors can be supplied up to a height of over 8 metres, with no restrictions on width. The doors slide past one another, so the storage cell can be opened at any point you need.

Read here how this works at Van Dam in Wieringerwerf and watch the video on YouTube:

Save energy with excellent insulation

With an R-value of 4.85 (m²·K/W), the temperature inside the storage cell stays stable. The door features double rubber seals for optimal sealing.

The PKD-100s doors run smoothly on a bottom rail made of Magnelis steel, which offers excellent corrosion resistance. Because the rail is recessed into the floor, vehicles can drive over it without any trouble.

This animation video clearly shows how the sliding door wall works:

Many options available

Our sliding door wall is light enough to be opened by hand. Electric operation is available as an option. Besides the standard light grey, other colours are also available. For quick access, a walk-through door can be built into the sliding door wall.

The PKD-100s doors are manufactured by Salco in Zwaagdijk-Oost and can be supplied fully assembled. To reduce transport costs, the sliding door wall can also be supplied as a build-it-yourself kit.
