Leave it to the experts! Corflex will install your partitions with the utmost care.
Partitions are built, assembled, inspected and strictly quality controlled at our own facilities.
BEAUTIFUL ON THE OUTSIDE EFFICIENT ON THE INSIDE PANEL CONSTRUCTION Operable partition panels by Corflex are the perfect blend of engineering and design. Small details make them pleasing to the eye, while innovative design ensures unmatched performance.
STEEL FRAME The steel frame makes the panel easier to operate and prevents damage to the finish despite recurring impact.
TOP AND FLOOR SEALS The activation of a single lever extends both top and floor seals simultaneously. These elements increase acoustic performance and match the frame’s colours.
STEEL MEMBERS
Automated operation and sweep seals also available.
18 GA (1.3 mm) horizontal steel members provide increased torsion and impact resistance.
FRAME COLOURS Corflex offers an extensive choice of frame colours to match the panel finish. See page 15 for a list of available finishes.
COMPRESSION MECHANISM Final partition closure is done using an expanding jamb, providing superior acoustic performance while matching the panel finish.
FRAME BENEFITS
In addition to their design value, frames offer endless surfacing possibilities, protect the partition finish and make it easier to handle the panels.

NATURE SURROUNDS US SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT, LEED CONSTRUCTION, ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINT… BECAUSE OF GREENWASHING, THESE IDEAS OFTEN SEEM MEANINGLESS. BUT AT CORFLEX, WE WERE PROUD TO BE GREEN LONG BEFORE IT WAS THE “IN” THING.
GENUINE SUSTAINABLE COMMITMENT From day one, sustainable development has been at the heart of Corflex. In addition to managing resources and recycling production waste, we favor recycled materials when assembling partitions. z Recycled
gypsum or particle board made of 100% post-industrial wood fibers, with no added urea-formaldehyde
z Up
to 85% recycled steel with post-industrial and post-consumer content
z Zero VOC z Natural,
glue
fireproof, non-flammable acoustic insulation
z Ecological
surfacing, such as certified wood and Greenguard-certified, zero PVC vinyl
The design of all our products was thoroughly analyzed for maximum contribution to LEED design.
THE END IS ONLY THE BEGINNING
Once your partition is no longer useful and ready to be dismantled, it will be returned to the Corflex factory where all usable parts will be recycled. A certificate confirming the volume of recycled materials may be issued upon request.

SPACE REINVENTED PAIRED PANELS
OMNI-DIRECTIONAL PANELS
5500 SERIES
5600 SERIES
Easy to move manually, paired panels fold in groups of two and can be stacked at either end of the central track.
When additional flexibility is required, omni-directional panels can be reconfigured easily. The system makes it possible to move individual panels on multiple axis, following tracks laid in a straight line, curve or even a cross. As long as panels remain on the same floor, they can be moved along a track of any distance, whether for stacking or storage.

MECHANICAL WONDERS MOTORIZED PARTITIONS 5900 SERIES Panels can be deployed or stored at the end of the track with the press of a button. Corflex’s unique system provides each panel with its own trolley, improving performance.
SMOOTH AND FAST OPERATION
DEPLOYMENT IN A LIMITED SPACE
A variable frequency drive adjusts deployment speed automatically, providing smooth action and diminishing stress on the track.
Because panels can be straightened faster, their deployment requires less clear space in front of the stack area.
INCREASED STABILITY
DISCREET HINGES
The chain drive is more stable than a cable drive, Adding a trolley to each panel makes it possible reducing necessary system maintenance. to use smaller and safer hinges, reducing risk of injuries.
RESTRICTED SPACE
The drive unit requires only 14 inches (356 mm) of ceiling space for installation.
APPLICATIONS: GYMNASIUMS, THEATERS, ANY LARGE-SCALE PROJECTS
INNOVATIVE DIFFERENT EXCLUSIVE
Having a floating trolley on top of each panel ensures a quick straightening of the partition without the use of a ceiling guide track which can damage the panel headers.
