Using Temporary Walls To Quickly Adapt Your Workspace

Temporary Walls are called by several different names depending on their composition and function - Modular walls, wall partitions, accordion walls, etc.  However, Panel Built's prefabricated wall system is one of the few 'temporary' wall systems that creates a traditional, controlled office environment.  Panel Built utilizes a 3" thick sandwich wall panel system with a wide range of material options to seamlessly fit into nearly any commercial or industrial environment. So, whether your temporary walls need to be installed into an office space or a heavy industrial environment, Panel Built can provide you with a system that best fits your facility.  This post will discuss Panel Built's modular walls and how they can be used to completely overhaul your workspace. 

In addition to unique layouts, the wall panels themselves are highly customizable as well.  For a traditional office environment, Panel Built's vinyl-covered gypsum panel works perfectly as a cost-effective wall system that offers excellent sound dampening and insulation.  However, specific settings have specific needs. Therefore, Panel Built offers various wall facings, insulative cores, and substrates to give our wall panels different characteristics, depending on the facility.  

For example, heavy manufacturing companies often must create a new office space in loud and sometimes chaotic conditions.  For these projects, Panel Built can equip our walls with special materials to increase their overall durability and even sound dampening!  Panel Built can give the walls a steel exterior facing to beef up our system.  The steel skin is durable and easily cleaned, perfect for the sometimes harsh industrial environment.  As a bonus, the wall's interior can still be formed from our standard vinyl-covered gypsum to give the interior a traditional office feel.  Substrates can also be added to the interior of the panel.  In this case, sound-deadening board can be added to the panel to increase the temporary wall system's STC (Sound Transmission Class). Depending on the need, one to two layers of the board can be added to the system, increasing the overall STC rating up to 40%!
