Shift demountable and reconfigurable partition system for commercial interiors
Description
Shift is a highly resolved and locally made, fully reconfigurable, demountable partitioning system ideal for flexibility and churn in office accommodation. As it can be fully reconfigured, walls can be moved and spaces redefined over time eliminating building waste and avoiding reduced productivity with minimal staff disruption as spaces are reconfigured. Shift can be adapted to many interiors due to its modularity and key elements that allow for maximum reuse and flexibility such as height adjustment at the floor and ceiling. The system has maximum longevity as it can be reused within a fitout or moved to a new fitout.
Key Features
and/or Benefits
There is growing demand in office accommodation for flexibility of use of space on a temporary and long term basis. As tenants move to a more open plan arrangement or Activity- based working, there is a demand for systems that allow for these changes to occur over time. Shift is environmentally responsible and cost effective while allowing the end user to change configurations and uses over time. Shift does not damage the floors or ceilings and can be reconfigured without wasted parts or additional parts. Local production makes site or design changes easy to accomodate.
The system has maximum longevity as it can be reused within a fitout and also be moved and installed like furniture in a new site in the future. Modular frames annd a universal panel system allow for a range of panel options to be used. All modules have inbuilt adjustment and do not damage the floors or ceilings. Shift has been developed in a way that wall frames can easily be disconnected and reconnected in 2,3 or 4 way connections.
The acoustic performance of the partition system has been tested and evaluated by CSIRO to achieve Rw 39. It is GECA certified and VOC tested to comply with GBCA guidelines. Shift is produced under ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 9001 for high quality & environmental controls. It is also Disability Code compliant and is highly functional with many options for plans as as pinboards, whiteboards and slat wall panels to accept many workstation accessories.
As the system is modular and all parts are mechanically fixed, disassembly is simple for recycling and reuse. Shift can be reconfigured many times with no waste or space parts. Shift is Australian made under ISO 14001 and ISO 9001 with Emissions & Energy management and materials minimisation. All parts can be recycled at the end of its useful life and Formula offers a Take Back scheme as part of our Stewardship Policy. It is VOC tested to comply with GBCA standards and carries a 5 year warranty.
