The Solution

Focused on a planned workspace that minimizes down time and increases productivity, the architect on the project specified PortaFab’s Omniflex Fire & Sound panels. This four wall design offers a roomy, 9’ floor to ceiling format and easily incorporates two HVAC units and doors with louvers for enhanced temperature control and ventilation.

 

Built with a mineral wool core, these panels provide excellent insulation and have sound deadening properties that work well to block out unwanted, constant noise. They are reinforced with plywood which allows for a multitude of interior customization, including the ability for mounting monitors and like equipment.

The non-progressive construction of the OmniFlex panels allows for great modularity and easily integrated into the existing sprinkler system, meeting local building codes. This standardized design is very adaptable as manufacturing processes need to change, saving significant time and money.
