Glazed partitions are a popular choice for renovating a range of commercial and public facing interiors. The obvious benefit is the boost to the amount of natural light; by removing walls and replacing them with glass office partitions, a previously dark office or interior can be flooded with light instantly.

However there are many other practical and aesthetic benefits to glazed partitions within a building – whether or not you have a glass facade to match. 

Health and wellbeing

Increasing the amount of natural light in your building does more than just make the place look better and brighter. Working under artificial light can actually be detrimental to health, contributing to eye strain, headaches and migraines. Those with seasonal affective disorder benefit from getting as much natural sunlight as possible in their work environment, particularly in the winter months.

A bright airy workplace can simply make people cheerier and feel included in the surroundings rather than cooped up. 

Which brings us on to the next big benefit of glazed partitions…

Energy efficiency

With a reduced need for artificial lighting, you can save money on energy by using glazed partitions in an office or commercial space. This will be an important cost saving in the winter months when buildings can see costs soar as the cold weather sets in. We see the same benefits in buildings with double glazed facades. A well designed and properly installed glazed facade can help to regulate both the heating and lighting requirements of a building. 

Privacy and peace with an open plan feel

Most people enjoy the ease of communication as well as the social aspect of an open plan office. We enjoy feeling part of a team. But sometimes we need a quiet space to work, a place for private meetings, or simply a space that caters for more than one team at a time. Glazed partitions offer improvement in acoustics, allowing the creation of a modular space that retains the look and feel of an open plan workspace.

Design flexibility 

Using glass panels to divide up an office space is a great idea if your commercial space needs to operate in a flexible way. Perhaps your business is dynamic and you need to be able to adapt your commercial space quickly and easily. Or maybe you rent or subcontract office space to commercial clients and need to offer a space that meets their unique needs at short notice.

Installing glass office partitions is a great solution for a space which may need to adapt and change as time goes on, without losing style or functionality. 

Stylish and timeless

As we have seen with glazed facades on buildings, glass and glazing does not go out of fashion. Its sleek, clean, adaptable looks mean that, with a little maintenance, glass panels can be an ageless design choice for interiors and exteriors of commercial buildings. 

Glazed office partitions look the part, as well as offering impressive safety standards and practical advantages.
