Smart glass partitions

Smart glass partitions divide open plans while keeping daylight when clear and providing privacy when energised. Head channels must pick up slab deflection, while acoustic seals at floor and junction posts close the Rw gap that would otherwise appear at the vertical joints between modules.

They are used in legal practices, boardrooms and show apartments where the client wants a flush glass aesthetic without blinds. Double-leaf doors and sidelights share a common driver strategy so busbar routes stay symmetrical and commissioning tests can be run room by room.
