Top three styles in office partitions

With open plan office spaces becoming an increasingly popular choice for contemporary businesses, office partitions are quickly becoming an essential feature of office fitouts for many reasons. Most commonly they are located in between workstations in an office space to provide employees with some privacy and segregation in open-plan settings. When used in this way, partitions can be a highly effective way of providing each worker with an individual, productive working environment.

If you are in charge of the space design of your office, you will need to start thinking about which style of office partitions will best work to the advantage of your company and ensure your finished office has just the look you're aiming for. To help get you started, here is a summary of the three main styles available in office partitions:

1. Half-height office partitions: Not every choice in office partition is going to be suitable for the requirements of your office space, but mid-height partitions are one of the most widely and successfully used variety of screens. These start from the floor but stop a few meters short of the ceiling and are commonly used to semi-enclose cubicles for workers in open plan offices.


2. Floor-to-ceiling office partitions: If the activities carried out in your office require a quiet environment, it may be a good idea to consider full height partitions. These reach from floor to ceiling, and are more like temporary walls than screens. Floor-to-ceiling office partitions are often constructed from foam-core plasterboard or cloth covered wood or metal frames. As well as supreme privacy, they can effectively reduce noise pollution.


3. Accordion office partitions: The third most common type of partition used in office fitouts is called an ‘accordion’ partition. These screens have a similar appearance and functionality to floor-to-ceiling partitions, except they concertina open, allowing easy access between the two separated spaces. Accordion partitions offer a great deal of flexibility, while also preventing the spread of sound.

If you are just beginning to set up a new office, if you are looking for ergonomic furniture solutions for your office or if your current office is struggling to be productive due to noise pollution from internal and external sources, it's definitely worth your while to consider what office partitions may have to offer the office of your business.
