Seamlessly Helps You Divide The Workspace
In comparison to permanent walls, fire-rated curtain walls are a more economical way to create different work enclosures within a large facility. Not only do they allow for fire resistance and design flexibility, but these curtain walls also allow facilities to keep dust, debris, and noise contained within their designated areas. Depending on what industry your facility is in, this is a very important factor to keep in mind when ensuring the safety of your employees and/or occupants.
At Greenlite, our experienced consultants suggest implementing VDS curtain walls to help you seamlessly divide your workplace. With streamlined aesthetic, clean lines, and tight tolerances, the VDS curtain walls will provide your facility with a high degree of design flexibility, aesthetic appeal and security.
Energy Efficient
When implemented correctly, fire rated curtain walls provide an aesthetically pleasing, modern finish to facilities while simultaneously delivering noteworthy thermal performance. Working to not only resist heat and flames, fire rated curtains help facilities keep excess air, wind and unwanted moisture out, while keeping occupants in.
Fire rated curtain walls also allow for more natural light to filtrate into the building, helping to reduce overall operational costs. With an increased supply of natural light and exceptional thermal performance, facilities will gain control over their energy consumption and notice a significant improvement in cost overtime.
