On a fast Indian fit-out, the measurement round is where programmes go to die: floors that differ tower to tower, ceilings that settle, door openings that change with the joinery package. Tecno engineered the W80 partition wall for exactly that reality. Horizontal and vertical profiles are cut to size directly on site, the door jamb is designed so the frame height is determined during installation, without a survey, and a patented technopolymer foot levels out floor-to-ceiling differences as the wall goes up.
What the site gains in speed, the building keeps in performance. The system holds a total thickness of 80 mm while carrying glass, wood, fabric, wiring and monitors along the same elevation; certified sound reduction spans from Rw 45 to 48 dB for double glazing and up to 56 dB for solid sandwich walls, with impact resistance tested to UNI ISO 7892 and ETAG 003. Designed in 2014 by Daniele Del Missier with Elliot Engineering & Consulting and Centro Progetti Tecno, W80 comes to Indian projects through La Mercanti as a wall that respects the one resource no budget can buy back: the handover date.
