acoustic insulation movable partition wall

Product Description

Movable Partition Wall Thickness Guide
The thickness of a movable partition wall affects its stability, acoustics, weight, and flexibility. Below is a detailed breakdown of standard and specialized thickness options for different applications.

1. Standard Thickness Ranges
Partition Type    Typical Thickness    Best For
Basic Office Partitions    50–100 mm (2–4 inches)    Open offices, temporary dividers
Glass Partitions    25–40 mm (1–1.5 inches)    Modern offices, conference rooms
Acoustic Partitions    75–150 mm (3–6 inches)    Meeting rooms, hotels, auditoriums
Extra-Strong Partitions    100–200 mm (4–8 inches)    High-security areas, heavy-duty use
2. Thickness by Material
A. Glass Partitions
Single-glazed: 25–40 mm (minimal soundproofing)

Double-glazed: 50–80 mm (better insulation, STC 40-50)

Laminated security glass: Up to 100 mm (impact-resistant)

B. Solid Panel Partitions
Aluminum honeycomb core: 50–100 mm (lightweight but strong)

Gypsum/mineral wool core: 75–150 mm (best for soundproofing, STC 50+)

Solid wood/composite: 60–120 mm (luxury finish, mid-range acoustics)

C. Folding/Sliding Partitions
Ultra-thin (space-saving): 35–60 mm

Standard (office use): 60–100 mm

Heavy-duty (event halls): 100–200 mm

3. How Thickness Affects Performance
Factor    Thin (25–60 mm)    Thick (75–200 mm)
Soundproofing    Low (STC 30-40)    High (STC 45-60+)
Weight    Light (easy to move)    Heavy (needs strong tracks)
Durability    Moderate    Very strong
Space Efficiency    Saves space    Takes up more room
Cost    Lower    Higher
4. Special Cases for Extra Thickness
Recording studios: 150–200 mm (STC 60+)

Hospital partitions: 100–150 mm (hygienic, soundproof)

Ballroom dividers: 120–200 mm (high stability for tall walls)

5. Choosing the Right Thickness
For offices: 50–100 mm (balance of space & acoustics)

For hotels/conference rooms: 75–150 mm (better sound control)

For industrial use: 100–200 mm (durability & insulation)

Conclusion
Thicker walls offer better soundproofing and strength, while thinner ones are lightweight and space-saving. The best choice depends on budget, acoustic needs, and structural support.
