Greener Office

With the emphasis on the UK to become more environmentally friendly companies are under pressure to eventually deal with sourcing suppliers who can offer sustainable materials.

Whilst more and more constructions are having directives from planning departments to incorporate elements of environmentally friendly materials, office interiors are not yet under this constraint but it is good for any company considering a refurb to at least have the options .

Made from sustainable sources of agri-fibres, using an environmentally friendly low energy process Strawboard is now being used in offices for floor to ceiling systems. Relocatable partitioning is being offered as this option for installtion by RAP Office Contracts Ltd based in Kent. These systems are quick and easy to install and are suited to all sizes of offices.

Combining wall mounted storage and shelving provides not only a coordinated solution to any office interior but also an ergonomic solution for business necessities.

Two systems of this partitioning is available in 75mm and 100mm thick – the latter providing ½ hour fire resistance. The partitions come in any size and colour with sound reducing panels based on a steel framework with solid, single and double glazed options.

Strawboard partitioning is easy to dispose of and 100% biodegradable and conforms to all relevant safety standards. Its acoustic performance and fire, moisture and impact resistance is 10% lighter than conventional alternatives.

Pre-fabricated door frames, standard/full height size with sound seals are incorporated into door stops and doors can be veneered, laminate or glass gung on steel coated hinges.

RAP has also started to offer solar window protection which offers value added solutions to shaping the future of the greener office.
