Flexiwall
Flexiwall is a unique floor-to-ceiling partition wall for factories and warehouses. Manufactured in heavy duty reinforced fire rated material, it is quick and clean to install and primarily used in tall industrial buildings to divide space for a wide range of applications.
Overview
Flexiwall helps manufacturing and warehouse facilities prevent dust, manage temperature, control noise, avoid cross contamination, reduce heat loss, create additional space and much more.
Installing industrial partition walls such as Flexiwall can avert the need and expense of new facilities by remodelling existing spaces. Offering multiple benefits over traditional partitioning methods, it is quicker and cleaner to install and can even be reconfigured, removed or relocated should business needs evolve.
Flexiwall takes up minimal floor space, can be designed to fit any size and shape of building and easily installs around existing ducts and pipework.
Installation (and demount) offers minimal disruption. Panels are assembled onsite and suspended to the existing structure or additional fabricated steel work before being tensioned/fixed to the floor, so there is no need for additional intermediate support framework.
Flexiwall can be adapted to suit various business requirements including high-level part-height suspended solutions. Plus due to the material’s waterproof properties, Flexiwall can also be used for external applications when combined with wind load straps.
If you require a retractable access solution within your partition, see our range of industrial curtains for factories and warehouses.
