Factory Partitioning
Partition your factory space with precision.
Factory partitions are an essential component of the modern industrial facility, providing crucial separation between different areas to optimise workflow, enhance safety and improve efficiency.
Maybe you need to increase storage space or perhaps divide production areas – whatever your challenge, we offer a variety of durable systems that are engineered for use in commercial buildings across the UK.
What are Factory Partitions?
Factory partitions are modular internal dividers that are designed to divide large industrial spaces into smaller, manageable areas. Unlike traditional partitions, these steel walls offer versatility and adaptability, as well as the ability to meet the unique requirements of the industrial workplace.
Key Features
- Steel Panels – Factory partitioning systems are constructed with durable materials like steel to ensure longevity and resistance to wear and tear. This material has been selected for its strength, durability and ability to withstand the rigours of the industrial workplace, providing reliable performance over time.
- Glazed Modules – We can incorporate glaze modules within your partitioning structure for visibility between different areas of your workplace.
- Soundproofing – Our systems offer a degree of acoustic protection to minimise noise transmissions between different areas. This feature is essential for maintaining a productive and comfortable work environment, especially in facilities with loud machinery or equipment.
Types of Factory Partitioning
To ensure you’re maximising space in your factory, you’ll need to decide on the right system. Our team will walk you through your options, however, some of our most popular industrial partitions we offer include:
As our more affordable steel room partition, our single skin option offers a straightforward solution for dividing industrial spaces across the UK. From food processing plants to packaging environments, they can be installed in a variety of industries.
The metal partitions consist of a singular steel panel and a partition steel frame. While simple in design, they’re effective for creating distinct work zones and enhancing organisation within the workplace.
Technical Specification:
- Steel panels measure 43mm thick as standard
- Cold-rolled angles measure 43 x 43 x 1.2mm as standard (18g)
- Cold-rolled T bars measure 32 x 32 x 0.7mm as standard (22g)
- Different sizes and powder coatings available
- Integrated glazed, half glazed, solid steel or mesh panels optional
- Single skin door options include side hung and sliding doors
Double skin partitioning is built with additional materials; the metal stud partition is made from two steel panels and a steel framework. This added layer creates an air gap in the middle that helps to improve soundproofing capabilities, making them ideal for environments where noise control is a priority.
Our systems are also built with a Rockwool infill to further improve thermal and sound insulating properties. We also offer double glazing options with this system.
Technical Specification:
- Steel panels measure 47mm thick as standard
- Cold-rolled channels measure 25.4 x 42 x 25.4 x 1.2mm (18g)
- Rockwool mineral fibre infill measures 30mm as standard
- Different sizes and powder coatings available
- Integrated glazed, half glazed, solid steel or mesh panels optional
- Double skin door options include side hung and sliding doors
Mesh partitions combine the strength of steel panels with the visibility of an open design. Industrial mesh partitioning is ideal for applications where visual communication, airflow and light penetration are essential, such as inventory storage, equipment enclosures or production lines.
Technical Specification:
- Galvanised steel available for external use
- Colour options: Light grey (BS-00-A-05) or mid grey (BS-10-A-07)
- Standard panel dimensions (width x height): 1000 x 2400mm, 1000 x 2700mm, 1000 x 3000mm
- Compatible with mesh doors and locks for additional security
Demountable Factory Partitions
Flexible factory partitioning is designed for easy reconfiguration. Unlike more permanent systems, these are easily dismantled to accommodate changing needs within your factory. This versatility means you can adapt your layout without the need for extensive construction or renovation.
Don’t Worry
We’ll discuss your options with you before any installation takes place. This ensures we specify the correct system to meet your factory’s needs, as well as any budget requirements.
Benefits of Factory Partitions
Security, safety, storage – there are many reasons for installing factory partitioning. What you might not realise is that your system can have a larger impact on your business than you know.
Efficiency
Using steel partitioning to separate operations, you can greatly reduce the margin for mistakes at work.
Our double skin walls can also prevent sound from passing from one work area to another, reducing noise interruptions for more efficient production. By default, this will also impact the quality of your services.
Demountable
Our flexible factory partition walls are quick to assemble and disassemble depending on your requirements, saving you time and resources during installation. For this reason, they’re ideal for growing workplaces.
Cost-Efficiency
Steel is a durable material that can last a long time without the need for replacements. Better yet, their demountable nature means that they can be taken with you should you decide to move or reconfigure your space.
Customisation
At Steel Partitioning UK, we offer a variety of sizes and finishes to our steel frame partition walls. This includes adding glazed or mesh modules to your system to suit your interior style.
Acoustics
Double skin factory partitions are manufactured to provide extra insulation to the workplace by restricting room-to-room sound transfer. This means you can dampen noise interruptions from machinery or other equipment being used.
Durability
Steel panels are known for their exceptional strength, making them ideal for use in industrial environments where robustness is essential. These panels can withstand heavy loads, impact and other forms of mechanical stress, ensuring long-term performance and reliability.
Security
Steel partitions provide security by creating a robust barrier between different areas within your factory. Their solid construction deters unauthorised access and helps to protect valuable equipment, inventory and sensitive areas from theft or vandalism.
Factory Compliance and Regulations
Ensuring compliance with relevant regulations and standards is crucial when implementing factory partitioning systems. It’s vital that your system adheres to the right regulations and standards governing factors such as building codes, occupational health and safety, noise control, accessibility and industry specific requirements.
