Overview
Partition system T
DGNB
Stuttgart
The objective of the new DGNB head office is to realise the goal of a truly sustainable building. In partnership with several companies, the new head office was developed as a tangible example of sustainable structural engineering. The carefully considered configuration of the interior spaces was implemented according to principles of user comfort, environmental impact and lifecycle consideration.

In detail.
Glass walls from Strähle's System T are used to separate the office and meeting rooms on the corridor side. The partition wall system, manufactured using a wooden post-and-beam construction, meets the requirements described by the DGNB in the areas of ecology, economy, socio-cultural and functional aspects as well as technology.
The wood comes from FSC certified cultivation. Some of the glass, aluminum and steel have already been made from recycled materials and can be returned to the material cycle. All parts of the partition wall systems have an above-average lifespan. The modular construction ensures a long service life.
When new organizational requirements arise, the systems can be easily converted thanks to the deliberately simple combination of components and materials. Through its design quality, System T promotes the well-being of employees. The natural wooden surfaces create a pleasantly warm atmosphere. The flush double glazing ensures transparency while maintaining high sound insulation values (up to 44 dB).
