A wall is not just a wall. In the open-office world, we collaborate and communicate within. More walls are coming down than going up. Moveable walls, also called architectural walls, demountable walls, or partitions, create flexibility in spaces that may need to accommodate privacy or other employee needs.
Moveable walls are available in different materials, textiles, and colors, and can transition seamlessly into almost any office space. In fact, movable walls can feel like you’ve been sent a miracle when transitioning staff, expanding, or undergoing any other major office adjustment. They can even bring power options into the center of the workspace. Moveable walls are adaptable to all the inevitable changes inside your workspace.
Architectural walls can be used in offices to conference rooms to storefronts. These walls can allow natural light into the office, offer some privacy and still give the illusion of an open space. The walls can also be designed to your company’s brand to reinforce your company’s culture or values.
Moveable walls have the ability to help focus work by eliminating distractions. Partitions divide your office space quickly and with ease, for meetings or other private conversations. The various textures and fabrics available for architectural walls can also curb office chatter or outside noise.
Because the best office furniture solutions use the best products for the environment, our ITL teams like to conduct an analysis before placing any demountable walls. Our product manufacturers create a variety of high-quality products to complement any company’s design.
In fact, one of our manufacturers, Teknion, recently won an award for their moveable walls at the annual NeoCon Conference in Chicago.
Moveable wall systems usually have competitive pricing compared to traditional construction. This benefit, combined with their flexibility, life-cycle and environmental benefits – about 95% of the components used in movable wall systems are recyclable, and no disposal of old drywall into landfills – makes movable walls an excellent investment for a business.
