Modular Whitewall
Dry wall Vs. Whitewall WHAT TO CONSIDER Sustainability:
The phrase Modular Construction is often used to describe the assembly of three dimensional units, fabricated in an off-site manufacturing facility, before being connected on site. At a smaller but equally effective scale, the phrase Modular Construction can also be attributed to a panelised or partially pre- assembled partition system, fabricated in an off-site factory setting. Components such as flat-pack panels, parts or assemblies can be described as modular. When joined or assembled in-situ, these systems can add up to a complete a modular interior partition solution. Whitewall is a system of certified fire-rated, inter-locking, modular panels with integrated door, window and fire stopping solutions for interior spaces. Whitewall is an economic, quick to build system, ideal for the construction of controlled environments, such as data centres. The solution offers an all-in solution that performs to a higher standard than traditional internal partition systems and generates improved construction performances as well as final results for facility owners and operators. We have identified the primary benefits of modular internal partition systems and explain how these systems of construction can introduce improvements in the areas of safety, productivity, cost, sustainability, schedule, and quality, among others.

Modular whitewall panels are completed in a factory setting, are fully finished, and ready for installation. Therefore, less transportation is required to get materials to site when compared to drywall construction. One installation team is required to erect whitewall panels, reducing the overall site set up, resulting in less on-site labour, inductions, toolbox talks, and overall, down-time compared to drywall. Due to reduced labour on site, modular whitewall panels reduce management, and plant and equipment. With drywall construction, multiple trades are required to finish the partitions on site. Modular whitewall panels can be ordered to the sizes required for the project, creating opportunity for zero waste at both the manufacturing facility and the site. Less material cutting reduces safety risks, improves dust control, and reduces cleaning across the site. Additionally, the materials used to make the panels are recyclable. Quality: Reduced Site Inspections: Modular whitewall panels are pre-finished meaning partitions are completed in a single installation. This reduces the risk of quality issues when compared to drywall and reduces site quality inspections and potential schedule hold points. Comparatively, drywall is installed in multiple phases, requiring site inspections as each portion of the studs, boarding, taping, jointing, and painting are completed.
