SITAB SYSTEM entrusts us with the evaluation of the partitioning system to be installed at Al Jahra Hospital (Kuwait)

26 March 2018

The partitioning system has been tested, based on parameters established in ETAG003

SITAB SYSTEM S.L. has entrusted us with the evaluation of the partitioning system. By simulating its real installation, we have tested a double glazed partition with a height of 4,000 mm and an approximate length of 5,500 mm. The hard and soft body impact tests performed (both for functional and structural damage) have been based on the testing parameters corresponding to the use category IV as per ETAG003 “Internal partition kits for use as non-loadbearing walls”.

It is an extremely high fully glazed dual partition solution fixed along the perimeter with a minimum of profiles for its use as an enclosure for administrative areas, as well as in the halls where the waiting areas and public transit areas between the diverse buildings in the hospital can be found.

The company SITAB SYSTEM S.L., through its dealer AGC (Advanced Group Company) in the Middle East, has been hired for the installation of 8,000 m2 of its interior partitioning system Series_TREBE ST-200 at AL JAHRA Hospital (Kuwait).
