A series of unique tapeable aluminium capping profiles, such as our tapeable glazing bar and fair end, guarantee clean lines and precise detailing, with seamless junctions between solid and glazed elements.
The tapered joggled, studs allow the outer layers of the board to be pinched in at the head, thereby eliminating flaring at the head once taped and filled and ensuring a true construction of 97mm constant thickness.
Optima 97 can accommodate a single or double layer of wall board to suit your acoustic specification, and plywood can be used in lieu of plasterboard where fixings into the drywall are required.
The system can be used in conjunction with Optima’s 117, 217 and Revolution glazing systems. Whether you are looking to create full height plasterboard cross walls with crisp shadow gap details and a seamless interface with the glazed office fronts, or partial height drywall partitions with clerestory glazing above to maximise light penetration, Optima 97 can provide a stunning solution.
Glazing
Optima 97 is fully compatible with all of our glazing systems.
