ACOUSTIC PERFORMANCE

High-performance options for enhanced privacy and noise reduction mean that modular walls systems can now compete with (and often exceed) the acoustic performance of traditional wall systems.

OPTIONS & CONFIGURATIONS

Offering flexibility and customization for your specific needs, modular walls systems are considered by most to have better aesthetics than traditional construction. Choose the product, finishes and options right for your space and feel confident you can make changes in the future given the flexibility benefit of these systems.

COST

Given the large number of options, modular wall pricing can be less or more expensive than traditional walls. Some studies have found the labor cost difference is as much as 50% for modular walls. Also keep in mind that modular walls depreciate like furniture (often a 7-year cycle) and not permanent construction (39 year cycle). How this investment hits your financials could influence your decision.

TIMELINE

Modular walls often provide shorter lead times with less wasted materials and lower overhead. These systems may also not require the same engineering requirements, architectural expenses, and permitting as traditional construction.

COMPATIBILITY

Seamlessly integrate power, data, AV solutions, and room schedulers thanks to the many options modular wall systems provide. These things can also be integrated into traditional walls, but changes and future adaptations are more limited.

FLEXIBILITY

Modular walls are the clear winner here, as they are demountable and can be moved/reused in other areas or even other locations. If there is any chance you will want to reconfigure your space in the future, this should be considered in your decision.

SUSTAINABILITY

Designed with sustainability in mind, using materials and processes that minimize environmental impact, modular walls offer a more significant benefit to the environment and your sustainability story. The ability to reuse these products and the reduced waste in construction give them the edge here over traditional construction.
