Following the success of CRL Langle Office XL Partition Systems for double-glazed units, the company has introduced the Langle New York Office system. With all the benefits of the Office XL and suitable for 8 to 28mm thick glass, the new system features a matte black frame that brings a modern, city look to any interior design while still overcoming practical issues surrounding noise and privacy in open-plan offices. As all profiles are from the same series, the system is connectable via original angle connectors for a flexible partitioning system.

Glass partitions create a high-end aesthetic while also being a highly practical way of creating a bright, spacious working environment and enhancing the office’s acoustics. They can also be used to form inner offices, creating a sense of privacy for meetings while still enabling those willing to integrate with the wider office. For specifiers and installers, the good news is that, with the right systems, such partitions are straightforward to fit, even retrospectively enabling the open-plan space to be easily adapted to suit changing requirements. One such system is the Langle Office Partition range from CRL.

Fast forward some years and the use of toughened or laminated glass came to the attention of architects who wanted to use the product in their projects and C. R. Laurence rose to the challenge to develop architectural hardware products suitable for the purpose. Initially the company created balustrades systems that had posts to support the glass, but the desire and push for a completely frameless look has led to the creation of products that can fix the glass safely, but which are virtually invisible. With one purpose in mind – to provide good quality, hard-wearing hardware that is safe, strong and on-trend CRL has developed Taper-Loc® frameless glass balustrade system from CRL is the leader in this field
