Perfect Partitions

Glass partitions continue to be a popular architectural design feature, providing unimposing yet definitive divisions in a range of environments. The expanses of glass deliver a stylish way of defining space, but also provide an opportunity for adding an extra element of style and design to your premises. By teaming up with designers and utilising state of the art print technology, The Window Film Company is able to provide stunning results for partitions of any size.

One of the first considerations when it comes to glass partitions is manifestation. These markings are required on glazing of a certain size in specific locations to ensure that the glass panels are clearly visible and it’s often this need that starts investigations into personalising partitions.

Manifestation

Manifestation is required on full height glass, partitions or glass doors. It is required at two levels; between 850mm and 1000mm and between 1400mm and 1600mm above ground level. Other key requirements are the size (logos or other designs must be 150mm in height, whilst straight line designs such as bands need to be at least 50mm tall) and appearance – it’s necessary for the manifestation marking to contrast with the background visible through the glass.

Whilst these stipulations may seem restrictive, they actually provide an opportunity for creative and inspiring additions to glass. When meeting manifestation requirements, many clients choose to apply a larger band of printed film to the glass, with the size of the panel meaning that both positional stipulations are met. The film can be printed to feature full colour graphics, branding, text or images, instantly giving your partition an added element of bespoke style.

Privacy

Frostbrite frosted film has specially been developed to deliver privacy whilst still allowing good levels of natural light to pass through the glass. It also [provides an excellent surface for printing onto, making it a very popular choice for application to partitions. Glass screens are often used to create meeting rooms or offices within an open plan environment and an application of plain or printed film can deliver privacy without sacrificing light and without harming the aesthetic benefits that glass partitions offer.

Designer flair
