Glass Office Partitions
Our glass office partitions create striking, functional workspace dividers with frameless single-glazed or double-glazed systems. Available in minimalist 25mm frameworks or chunky industrial styles, these partitions maximise natural light while providing acoustic insulation up to 46dB. Clients can choose from toughened or acoustic laminated glass with powder-coated finishes to match brand colours.
Fire Rated Glass Doors
We supply and install fire-rated glass doors compliant with BS 476 and EN 1364-1 standards, offering E30 to EI60 fire protection ratings. These transparent solutions maintain safety while allowing light transmission, featuring steel-framed systems that integrate seamlessly with existing architecture. Our installations include escape route partitions and stairwell enclosures.
BLAQ Banded Partitions
BLAQ banded partitions combine structural stability with contemporary aesthetics through black-bonded glass bands creating a 'crittall' effect. These systems maintain acoustic performance up to 46dB while adding visual impact, available with matching glazed doors in black or stainless steel finishes for commercial environments.
Acoustic Glass
Our acoustic glass solutions reduce noise disturbance by 38-46dB through laminated interlayers that disrupt sound wave transmission. Suitable for both single and double-glazed systems, these partitions improve workplace wellbeing while maintaining visual clarity and design flexibility in office environments.
Office Window Blinds
We provide integral blinds sealed between glass panes for low-maintenance privacy solutions. Available in Venetian, roller, and blackout styles, these blinds enhance thermal efficiency while offering 25-year durability. Our contract-quality installations include 6.4mm clear laminate glass with customisable colour and fabric options.
