Improving acoustic clarity in a specialist healthcare environment

Its office in Chamberlain Square, Birmingham is very much part of the local community – supporting key business networks, as well as life-changing charities, to help build a stronger, prosperous future for the city and its people.
Working with contractor, Overbury, Style was asked to create flexible space in Mazar’s meeting rooms, the requirement being to deliver great acoustic integrity, a stylish solution and a light, open feel.
To achieve this, Style installed three glazed moveable walls with striking black profiles – each with a full height pass door for ease of access.
The combination of moveable walls enable the area to be quickly divided into separate meeting rooms and a client lounge, or opened up to provide larger open plan meeting and conference space.
With each wall offering incredible 50db Rw acoustic integrity, meetings can take place undisturbed while the glass creates a feel of openness and maximizes light.
“Glass moveable walls offer an ideal solution for creating flexible meeting rooms,” said Steve Williams, Style’s sales director for the Midlands.
“For Mazars, staff can quickly reconfigure the space to cater for the events taking place each day – whether that’s a larger gathering or several smaller meetings.
“The manifestations included on the glass also provide an element of visual privacy, whilst adding to the interior design of the room, which is why glass moveable wall systems have been growing in popularity.”
Style is the UK market leader in operable walls, offering an extensive range of manual, semi-automatic and fully automatic moveable and folding wall systems. Offering solutions across multiple market sectors including corporate, hospitality, healthcare, education, local authority and religion, Style has recently extended its glass moveable wall range to forge into new markets including retail, shopping centres, airports, high rise residential winter gardens and banks.

HBN 00-09 sets out these surface characteristics because unsealed joints are a recognised place for moisture and micro-organisms to collect. A genuinely joint-free edge is designed to address that specific detail.
This is a surface and edge specification, not a clinical claim. Zero-joint technology has not been evaluated or certified by NHS England, and does not claim to reduce infection rates.
Food-service and guest-facing areas are typically inspected under hygiene and housekeeping standards that look closely at surfaces and joints. A seamless, moisture-resistant edge is designed with exactly that kind of scrutiny in mind.
Every one of these sectors shares the same underlying surface problem: a bonded-strip edge is a seam, and a seam is a place where dirt, moisture or wear can concentrate in a way a continuous surface can't. Zero-joint technology addresses that one structural detail across offices, schools, healthcare and hospitality settings alike — one construction detail, one shared weak point removed, four sectors that each care about it for their own reasons.
