What Types of Glass Are Available for Full Height Partition Walls?

2026-01-27

Glass partitions not only separate areas but also enhance the office layout, light distribution, and overall design. When designing modern offices or commercial spaces, choosing the right glass for full-height partition walls is essential. M&W offers a range of glass types and custom solutions to meet different office needs while ensuring aesthetic appeal and functionality.

 

Types of Glass for Full-Height Partitions

Full-height glass partitions can be made from several types of glass, each with distinct features in terms of transparency, pattern, and privacy. Choosing the right glass helps balance openness, light, and privacy in your office.

1. Low-Iron (Starphire) Glass

  • Color: Transparent, with blue edges
  • Pattern Options: None, strips, laser-cut shapes
  • Privacy Level: Low

Low-iron glass provides excellent clarity and visual transparency. It is ideal for open-plan offices where light and visibility are priorities. Its minimal green tint along the edges makes it visually clean and modern, perfect for collaborative spaces.

 

2. Frosted Glass

  • Color: Translucent
  • Pattern Options: None, strips, laser-cut shapes
  • Privacy Level: Medium to high

Frosted glass allows light to pass through while offering increased privacy. It works well for conference rooms, private offices, or spaces where visual separation is needed without blocking natural light.

3. Clear Glass

  • Color: Transparent, with green edges
  • Pattern Options: None, strips, laser-cut shapes
  • Privacy Level: Low

Clear glass is versatile and blends with any office style. It creates separation without isolating spaces, making it suitable for open work areas, reception zones, or partitions where transparency is preferred.

4. Tinted Glass

  • Color Options: Bronze, grey, green
  • Pattern Options: None, strips, laser-cut shapes
  • Privacy Level: Low to medium

Tinted glass reduces glare and adds a subtle color element to office interiors. It is ideal for executive offices, creative zones, or areas exposed to direct sunlight.

 

How M&W Creates Full-Height Glass Partition Systems?

 

Choosing the right type of glass is only the first step. M&W focuses on creating full-height glass partition systems that are both functional and visually appealing, ensuring they fit seamlessly into modern office layouts. Our approach balances minimal design, flexibility, and performance, resulting in partitions that support productivity while enhancing the overall workspace.

1. Clean Design and Aesthetic Appeal

M&W’s partitions are designed to complement any office layout with a minimalist aesthetic. Key features include:

  • Invisible aluminum frames that blend with the interior
  • Transparent connections between glass panels for a seamless appearance
  • Super white (low-iron) glass that enhances visual transparency and brightness

This combination of design choices allows offices to maintain a sophisticated, open environment while still defining distinct functional zones.

2. Adjustable Features for Uneven Surfaces

Real-world office spaces often present challenges such as uneven floors or ceilings. To address this, the HK55S glass partition includes an adjustable range of 20mm in key areas, including the wall starter, top groove, and bottom groove.

By accommodating minor irregularities, M&W ensures that the partitions remain visually aligned and structurally stable, providing a professional finish in every setup.

3. Acoustic Performance

Maintaining a quiet and productive workspace is another focus of M&W’s system. High partitions are equipped with sound insulation seals and sealant strips, which can reduce noise levels by up to 35 decibels. It ensures that private conversations, meetings, and focused work can take place without disturbing other areas, all while preserving the openness of the glass partition system.

4. Flexible Size and Door Options

The HK55S system is highly adaptable to different office layouts. Its size options include:

  • Height: 2100mm – 3000mm
  • Width: 450mm – 1200mm
  • Door system width: 800mm – 1050mm

In addition to standard swing doors, the system can be combined with triamine panels for a custom look. This flexibility allows designers to create partitions that meet both functional and aesthetic needs, making HK55S a high-quality alternative to solid walls.
