Four Benefits of Office Partitions
When working in an office environment, there are many environmental factors at play when it comes to creating a positive and productive workplace. When considering office wall partitions, panels and screens, there are some key benefits that you can gain from using these systems. Today we’re going to focus on some of these benefits.
Order
Office portioning can be used methodically, to organise larger spaces into smaller parts, so you can divide the space into different departments within the company, for example. This will also give a positive impression to any visitors as your company will come across as organised and efficient. You can use partition walls with doors to create new meeting rooms, as well as additional spaces for high-concentration work or storage sections.
Environment
One of the main ways that office partitioning can change the office environment is by increasing levels of natural light. For example, use of glass partitioning will be able to filter light throughout the office whilst maintaining the benefits of the partitioning. In addition, office partition walls can help regulate the office temperature, enhancing the air flow in warmer weather, and helping to keep the space at around 21 degrees Celsius. Creating small spaces can also help to retain heat during colder weather, which is vital when staff are working at computers as typing with cold fingers can be difficult.
Security
Office partitions can also create spaces that are more private. Not only do partitions help employees to keep focussed, they can also form private areas that may be needed for particular phone calls or meetings. This can also be essential when working in sensitive areas where security is needed whilst working. Additionally, double and single skin steel partitions can be made, which are best for more industrial environments as they provide extra security and are more durable. If you require a segregated area for secure and bonded storage or hazardous materials, these can be a good idea.
Work
The reason for being in the office is to get work done, so it’s important that time is used wisely. Partitioning systems have been known to increase productivity as staff can focus on their work more easily, but still get that sense of a being part of a bigger team. It is a win-win situation, as it also boosts morale, as staff can take ownership of their small space, as well as being free from distraction. It can also make staff more creative, fostering ‘water cooler’ moments where they can talk briefly before getting back to their desks to concentrate and reflect on their own.
