Aluminum Framing Systems for the Healthcare Sector

For medical professionals, the health and safety of their patients is of the utmost importance. Therefore, all healthcare environments must support healing and recovery. Frameworks Manufacturing explains the benefits of aluminum framing systems for the healthcare sector:

Maximizes natural light

Natural light works wonders for our health! With greater exposure to natural light, we see an increase in Vitamin D, which is known to reduce cancer cell growth, control infections, and reduce inflammation. Additionally, natural light exposure improves sleep and reduces depression. 

For patients recovering in medical facilities, natural light can be incredibly beneficial. Many aluminum framing systems—including those with windows and glass partitions—maximize lighting, creating an environment that is conducive to improved health and wellness. With the option to include window walls, our Barn Sliders provide ample lighting. This system’s top hung surface mounted track allows for ease of operation in high traffic units like the Emergency Room. 

Reduces noise and supports privacy

Healthcare professionals and facilities must abide by strict HIPAA laws. These laws protect patient privacy by ensuring medical records and personal information remain confidential. Therefore, it’s important that exam rooms and medical offices are soundproof. 

Many aluminum framing systems provide sound control, like our Serenity – STC-35. This system utilizes Type II aluminum frames with STC (Sound Transmission Class) rated wood doors from Graham and Maiman for maximum noise reduction.
