by Shane Henson — January 25, 2013—Teknion Corporation, an international designer, manufacturer and marketer of office systems and related furniture products, was recently awarded one of its largest architectural wall installations to date through ExxonMobil.
Per the contract, Teknion will install more than 98,000 linear feet (29,870 meters) of the company’s innovative Altos architectural wall system at the oil and gas giant’s new campus currently under construction near Houston, Texas.
According to Teknion, Altos features clean, crisp lines to harmonize with building interiors. Given its versatility, Altos will be used throughout the project to define individual offices, collaborative workspaces and meeting areas.
Use of laminate, veneer, glass and fabric allows creative application of finishes. Thin, anodized frames project a modern aesthetic, while vertical and horizontal reveals add visual interest. Simple and efficient, Altos facilitates cost-effective reconfiguration or full relocation as required, the company adds. Its unique universal framework allows changes in elevation, dimension, Fascia function and finish to maximize the life of the product.
“In today’s highly competitive market, we are pleased that ExxonMobil chose our Altos full-height, demountable walls,” said Maxine Mann, president of Teknion’s U.S. operations. “We were thoroughly evaluated on the product’s design and aesthetics, acoustics and technology integration, and the flexibility, ease of disassembly and future use capabilities resulting from its prefabricated assembly.”
