Description
A 50 metre roll of certified anti-UV red welding PVC strip for building welding curtains, bay screens and mobile welding screens. The orange-red PVC is made to EN ISO 25980 (formerly EN 1598), the standard for transparent welding curtains and screens. It filters the harmful UV and intense glare from welding arcs, protecting people working or walking nearby from arc-eye, while still letting them see shapes and movement inside the bay. Cut strips to your own drops for new curtains or to replace worn strips on existing welding bays. Three certified sizes, each priced in full inc VAT.
Why certified welding PVC
Protects people around the work. Welding arcs give off UV and intense light that can cause arc-eye in anyone nearby. A curtain of certified welding PVC around each bay shields colleagues, visitors and passers-by.
See in, safely. The translucent red lets supervisors and first-aiders see that someone is working in the bay and spot problems, without a solid wall cutting the area off.
Certified grade only. Every size on this page is the certified welding grade to EN ISO 25980 / EN 1598. Decorative coloured PVC looks similar but does not give this protection.
Less noise and spatter spread. The heavy PVC also helps cut grinding and welding noise and keeps sparks and spatter inside the bay.
Know the limits. Welding screens protect bystanders. The welder must still wear a proper welding helmet and protective clothing.
Where it is used
Steel fabrication and engineering workshops, welding bays and booths, training colleges, maintenance workshops, vehicle body shops, shipyards and plant hire depots, and mobile welding screens on site.
Choosing your size
| Size | Duty | Recommended max height | 50m roll inc VAT |
|---|---|---|---|
| 200mm x 2mm | Light | 3m | £265.90 |
| 300mm x 2mm | Light | Not published | £400.90 |
| 300mm x 3mm | Medium | 5.5m | £600.90 |
200mm x 2mm suits personnel screens and light partitions. 300mm x 3mm suits heavy-duty welding bays and taller curtains. Match your existing strips if you are replacing.
How far does a roll go?
Strips needed = bay width divided by (strip width minus overlap), rounded up, plus one. Use a generous overlap so there are no gaps for light to escape. Example: a 3m wide bay with 300mm strips overlapped by 150mm needs 21 strips; at a 2m drop that is 42m, so one roll closes the bay.
| Drop | Strips from one 50m roll |
|---|---|
| 1.8m | 27 |
| 2.0m | 25 |
| 2.5m | 20 |
| 3.0m | 16 |

Cutting and fitting
Unroll the PVC on a clean flat surface and let it relax. Cut each strip square with a sharp knife against a steel straight edge, punch or drill the hanging holes to suit your plates or rail, and hang with a generous overlap so arc light cannot escape between strips. Trim the foot so it just clears the floor. Replace strips that are scorched, holed or heavily spattered, as damage reduces protection. Wipe clean with warm soapy water.
Frequently asked questions
Is this certified for welding screens?
Yes. All three sizes are the certified welding grade to EN ISO 25980 / EN 1598.
Can the welder rely on the curtain instead of a helmet?
No. Welding curtains protect people around the bay. The welder must always wear a proper welding helmet and protective clothing.
Why red rather than green?
Both are used for welding screens. Red is more see-through, so it suits bays where people outside need to watch the work; darker green filters more light.
Can I use transparent red decorative PVC instead?
No. Decorative transparent red is not certified and does not give welding protection.
