Modular Walls & Flooring

Benjamin Franklin said that, “in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.” The nature of work is constantly changing.  Managing your facility to meet your change requirements can be a challenging when you can’t easily increase your real estate footprint, or your interior elements can’t be easily or quickly changed.  Interior modular walls, freestanding privacy rooms, semi-private structures, modular wiring, raised flooring and modular solutions for routing of power and data allow organizations to transform their space quickly.   Modular interior products can allow you to make changes with substantially less disruption to employees and their work.

    Raised Flooring

    Raised flooring is one piece of a building infrastructure that enables building owners and managers to provide a flexible, energy efficient, low-cost facility that meets the needs of its employees and tenants. A raised access floor can decrease initial construction cost and time, while making future moves and changes less expensive and disruptive.  The ability to easily access and change power and data beneath the floor can result in a more flexible, responsive, and cost-efficient workplace when you need to reconfigure your workspace.  Improvements to air quality and energy efficiency can also be obtained by forcing clean air from the floor. Hot/cold complaints can be decreased by providing occupants control over their space’s diffusers. Save 20% or more on your HVAC energy costs by using under-floor air distribution.

    Floor Systems - Corner-Lock and Bolted Stringer

    Whether your building requires a comprehensive integrated solution - combining underfloor air distribution (UFAD), modular power distribution (MPD), cable management, Wi-Fi and more - or a more streamlined approach, we will work collaboratively with your team to customize a solution that is ideal for your building environment.

    Raised flooring options include corner-lock and bolt stringer systems.  The corner-lock raised flooring system is most often used when carpet tile will be the flooring used in the area or a low-profile solution is required.  The bolted stringer system is most often used when a hard surface finish such a concrete, porcelain, high pressure laminate or vinyl is required for the flooring.

    Raised flooring allows you to create an open space without the need for power poles.  Changing the design of existing spaces is not limited by the location of power and data.  Floor height can be varied to accommodate various finishes or functions within a space.

    Cable Floor

    At just 1.57” finished floor height the cable floor manages cabling below the floor to organize any work area and maximize the floor to ceiling height of the space.  The combination of high strength, light weight concrete and high-density plastic forms this unique low profile floor system that is extremely durable and flexible.

    Modular Power Distribution (MPD)

    A Modular Power Distribution System (MPD) provides owners, consultants, facility managers and occupants with unlimited flexibility. With a MPD system you have a system that is economical, easily accessible, and adaptable for future additions or re configurations.  A MPD system utilizing Plug & Play technology provides exceptional adaptability to meet the demands of today’s ever-changing office spaces – without requiring an electrical contractor.  With utilities under the floor, you can reduce electrical installation labour hours by 30-40%.

    The basic components of a MPD consist of distribution boxes, electrical floor boxes, modular connector cables and infeed transition boxes for the connection of modular furniture cables.

    Underfloor Air Distribution

    Raised access floors can help you reduce energy costs by pushing air up from the floor rather than down from the ceiling. Fans use 10- 20% less operational energy. Fan power requirements are reduced because less ductwork leads to lower static pressures. HVAC systems are more efficient because the air is targeted where needed—in the space people work.

    Worker comfort is one of the top workplace issues challenging organizations. With raised access flooring, clean and newly conditioned air is introduced through the floor directly into the occupied zone. The air with the impurities naturally rises to be removed from the space. Air diffusers can be adjusted by occupants to give them greater temperature control, allowing them to focus on their work.

    Data and Power Distribution

    For distribution of power and data to open work areas, to meeting rooms, to lounge or collaborative areas, both on-floor and under-carpet systems are very affordable options that allows users to quickly add connectivity or change power locations.  Distribution capacity is easily scaled up or down as needed due the modularity of the systems. Durable power and data tracks are designed to withstand loads of up to 1000 pounds.  Low profile transition and end ramps create a gentle slope to conceal the power and cable track that is less that ¾ of an inch high.   

    Under-carpet systems work best with carpet tile and it can be installed during new construction or to retrofit any existing space.   Power receptacles are modular allowing them to be installed every 3 feet and can be replaced with Hubcaps to make them flush with the floor and the area free of obstacles when required.  15” wide transition ramps make the under-carpet system almost invisible.  The raceway has capacity for up to 4 data cables, but additional capacity can be increased to up to 24 cables by attaching a data track next to the existing power raceway.

    Visible on-floor systems work on top of any flooring surface.  On- floor tracks can be affixed to the floor and easily moved when required.   Like the under-carpet system, the on-floor track allows for the routing of power and data.  The on-floor track is available with a cord for plugging into a standard outlet or it can be hardwired to the buildings power system.  The on-floor track system comes in 6’ and 12’ track length to deliver a single circuit 15amp duplex receptacle and (4) Cat-6 cables where needed.  The on-floor track allows for multiple receptacles to be installed along the power track every 3 feet and data cable routing of (6) Cat-6 cables.  Data routing can expand to carry up to 42 cables by installing additional data tracks on either side of the on-floor track.

    Privacy Booths

    A visual and acoustic solution in an open floor plan

    The visual and acoustic disruptions of an open office floor plan can be distracting when workers need to focus, have a private call, have an uninterrupted conversation with a co-worker or have an impromptu team meeting.  A solution to this problem can be found in providing work areas to support both solo and teamwork.  Semi-private structures within the open plan can provide areas with just enough privacy for teams to come together to work on projects and create dynamic workspaces that provides multiple work setting for both collaborative and individual work.  Private booths for one of more individuals that can be used as phone booths, a solo quite space or a collaborative work area an also integral part of the solution to improving the effectiveness of an open floorplan design.

    Modular Meeting Room

    Most of the workspaces of today are designed as open areas to promote the exchange of ideas between colleagues, to generate productivity, to create synergy between teams, etc.  The effectiveness of an open plan design is dependent on the on its ability to offer areas where you can have a private conversation or work as a team and concentrate without bothering others.  Semi-private structures and privacy booths allows workers to get away from the workstation for privacy or for teams to focus and collaborate without interrupting other teams or co-workers.

    Semi-Private Structures

    Using either architectural walls or modular systems furniture walls, teaming, conference, café, and lounge areas can be created throughout an open floor plan that can be move and changed with the requirements of the workspace.  Structures can be built to support impromptu meetings between 1 to 2 people or space for multiple groups to have team discussions.  Dedicated team spaces can be provided to enable quick team meeting or the ongoing sharing of ideas and information.  Compact touch down spaces can be created to allow workers to get away from their workstations for privacy or for simply a change in where they work.  They can also be created to accommodate traveling team members or guests.  

    Using modular walls, touchdown, lounge and café areas can be created through out the open floor plan to provide spaces for workers to meet, great, work, or socialize with colleagues.  Modular walls can be used to define different work zones and create neighborhoods within an open plan.
