Why You Should Have Privacy Partition Enclosures in Your Workplace

Industries like manufacturing and construction aren’t exactly known for providing quiet, private spaces. With loud machines, busy factory floors, and more, these industries can make finding peace and quiet difficult. Noise in the workplace is one of the biggest causes of hearing loss. Singer Safety sees the problems caused by a lack of privacy in these spaces, which is why they advocate for privacy partitions in the workplace. You might ask, “what is a privacy partition?” A privacy partition is a wall or curtain designed to add privacy and reduce noise to an area.

Privacy Curtains

Privacy curtains are one type of privacy partition. They are often used to turn one open facility into multiple workspaces by creating new spaces that are separate from each other. Privacy curtains and walls also block out unwanted noise, making it easier to focus on tasks within each enclosure. They can also limit exposure to chemicals or other workers. This is especially helpful given the recent Covid-19 pandemic. Privacy curtains can be used to administer testing, first-aid, or simply limit potential exposures between workers. When employees are separated by privacy curtains, they are less likely to transmit the disease, since the curtains function like walls, blocking potential transmissions in open facilities.

 Privacy curtains have many other uses. They can be used to set up first aid rooms where privacy is very important. They can also be used as decontamination areas where employees can get clean after work or between certain tasks. Privacy curtains can even be used to create new offices where there weren’t any before. Having an office is very useful for daily tasks, especially ones that require privacy. Unfortunately, office space is often limited. With privacy curtains, any area can be an office. Create more office space with privacy curtains by turning open floors into multiple, private offices that are separated by partitions. Similarly, any area can now be a private locker room for employees. Privacy and quiet can be vital to the productivity of your company, so it’s important to use privacy partitions where permanent walls might not be available.

Singer Safety has many options when it comes to privacy curtains. They come in multiple different colors and types. Singer offers roller partition curtains that can be easily opened and closed. These curtains run along a track system that makes them easy to move. These are great for areas that require a lot of traffic/machinery as well as plenty of privacy. Industrial welding curtains serve a similar function, but they are specifically designed for welding. These curtains are specially designed to create a safe, private environment for welding away from others. Environmental partitions are often used to control temperatures and prevent contaminations by providing a clean, sectioned-off area. Singer has many more types of industrial curtains to choose from like outdoor curtains and even windproof curtains.

Privacy Partition

Privacy partitions can increase productivity by providing areas for workers to relax away from work. Stress and fatigue are some of the most dangerous impairments at work. When workers are stressed, their work and their safety are put at risk. Privacy curtains can give workers an area to decompress away from the rest of the workplace. They can relax, focus on other things, and rest before returning to work. Additionally, privacy curtains increase productivity by allowing multiple workstations in one room. With multiple workstations, employees can focus on their specific tasks without being distracted by the loud noise of other stations nearby. Privacy curtains can be great for removing distractions and ultimately increasing productivity. Make the most out of one room by using privacy curtains to set up multiple workstations that can all work alongside each other.

Privacy partitions can be a cost-effective way of adding space. They can turn one room into many by adding multiple workstations to one room. Without privacy curtains, it might be difficult to maintain multiple, productive stations near one another. With privacy curtains, you can increase the number of workstations on one floor, while also conserving space. Most tasks that might require the privacy of a single room can be performed in open facilities alongside other tasks. Unlike walls, privacy partitions are a lot less permanent. Privacy partitions are easy to install and remove, making them great for temporary setups. Privacy partitions are great for a workspace that is constantly changing and upgrading.

Industrial Partition Walls

Industrial partition walls are very similar to privacy curtains. Instead of curtains, however, they more closely resemble traditional, permanent walls. Like privacy curtains, partition walls are also used in place of permanent walls to add privacy and reduce noise. They may form enclosures around an entire space using a track and curtains to resemble walls. Partition walls can be used anywhere that would benefit from privacy in an industrial setting. Partition walls are designed to be much more temporary than permanent wall installations. They are easier to set up and remove than permanent walls. Partition walls can serve many of the same functions as privacy curtains. They can be used to create locker rooms, offices, first aid rooms, and more.

Singer Safety offers three different privacy wall enclosures that vary by size. They have the 8H Privacy Series, the 10H Privacy Series, and the 12H Privacy series. All of these enclosures are built to ensure privacy and noise reduction on your open facility floor. These enclosures can be used in a variety of ways to increase productivity and space.
