Vetrotech Partitions Paris

Introduction

glass partitions are popular interior solutions for new construction and renovation, as they allow the passage of natural daylight within buildings, creating spacious, open, creative, and bright interiors. At the same time, they enhance comfort and provide a wide variety of design features, such as acoustic insulation, screen printing, and privacy through integrated blinds. Vetrotech's glazing solutions for partitions combine the key benefits of glass with life safety features, providing the ultimate discrete solution for any type of interior or building.

Fire-rated Glass Partitions

Fire-rated glass partitions offer design freedom, natural daylight, and effective fire protection.

High-security glass partitions

High-security glass partitions deliver design freedom, access to natural daylight, and uncompromised safety in line with the highest classifications.

Applications

Glazed partitions provide greater transparency, more natural daylight, and uncompromised safety.

 

Research has demonstrated that natural daylight and exposure to outside views can have a positive impact on people’s well-being, comfort, and productivity. Studies have revealed that students do better academically, patients exhibit faster recovery times, and employees tend to perform better when they are in environments that feature abundant natural daylight. 

 

Our glazed solutions for partitions are also designed with fire resistance and high-security features to meet the highest standards for life safety. Our products are suitable for a wide range of building types, including but not limited to office buildings, factories, transportation hubs such as airports and train stations, health care institutions like hospitals and elderly care homes, government buildings such as courthouses, and retail and leisure centres.

Performance

Fire-rated glass partitions play a key role in the event of a fire. From a safety perspective, glass’ transparency allows for the early detection of hazards, a benefit in the safe evacuation of people in emergency situations. It also helps maintain the fire in a certain space, a practice known as compartmentation that creates safe escape routes or areas of refuge for building occupants. High-security glass partitions, on the other hand, protect people inside a building from manual attack, gunfire, or explosions. Our fire-resistant and high-security glass solutions for partitions are certified to EN and UL standards to ensure people’s safety, no matter what.
