Demand for glass moveable walls sees rapid growth

2021-06-24

Demand for glazed moveable and folding wall systems is seeing rapid growth as the popularity of light, airy and flexible space rises.

According to Andy Gibson, Style’s director for the north, an increasing number of glass moveable walls are being specified by architects seeking to offer adaptable space while retaining a light, expansive open plan feel.

“Glass solutions have taken off dramatically across multiple market sectors,” said Andy. “Nationally, Style has completed some stunning installations and their popularity is down to the fact that the acoustic integrity of our glass moveable walls is very high, with some walls offering up to a 52dB acoustic rating.

“It means you can segregate space while retaining an open and visible floor plan, with a complete range of manual, semi-automatic and fully automatic systems to choose from.”

Style has recently expanded its portfolio of glass moveable walls by securing the exclusive UK distribution of dormakaba’s interior glass Horizontal Sliding Walls (HSW) range. 

Alongside its existing range of glass moveable walls this means that Style will now also offer a complete end-to-end process for architects, contractors and end user clients for the specification, provision and installation of dormakaba’s HSW partitioning systems. 

“We have led the market in acoustic and non-acoustic glass moveable walls for many years,” continued Andy, “but we are now taking our glass range to the next level with this extended partnership with dormakaba.

“Their HSW range is a superb, market leading single glazed moveable partitioning wall system which is very popular in shops and shopping centres, sports stadiums, airports, banks and high rise residential winter gardens.

“As demand for glass solutions continues to grow, we now offer a more complete range than ever before catering for all requirements, budgets and market sectors.”
