I have no real answer, but, maybe try a place that makes awnings like for porches and storefronts.

My buddy had one made for his pole barn. He had a person that made boat tonneau covers make it up. Heavy Canvas material.

I think the cheapest way to go would be a tarp, already has some grommets to hang with.
Could even buy a wider one and fold it double.

Do a google search for "stage curtains". We used to have some separating a 30 foot tall room at work. they came from a stage supplier. Heavy buggers.

How about a used billboard tarp? https://billboardtarps.com/product/14-x-48-9-oz-black-vinyl-tarp-reused-billboard-11-mil-0-10-sq-ft/

What do you expect this curtain to do? A visual barrier, keep havc on one side isolating the other, security, or something else. It makes a difference. First thing that comes to my mind is a truck tarp. What is your budget?

dust mainly to one side of the fab section,,and also it may help keep some the heat over on one side ,,great ideas guys thanks,,the billboard tarp is really cheap

What about those accordion-folding curtains used in Hotels and churches and even funeral homes to make small spaces out of larger spaces? They generally hang from a track and move easily providing a visual barrier and some thermal/ acoustical separation as well.
I would like to find a supplier of these used, as well for my garage.

Maybe look into a company that makes / sells tarps and covers for soft sided semi trailers.
