Expert Review and  Insights

The Gopak CE879 is a prime example of function meeting form. It’s not trying to be a full-height wall; it’s a brilliant, low-level valance or divider that does its job perfectly. Its lightweight nature is its biggest selling point – taking it from storage to stage is a one-person job, which is a massive plus in any busy venue.

Thomas Keane – Furniture View Profile →

  • Pro: Exceptionally lightweight and  tool-free setup, making it ideal for flexible-use spaces.
  • Con: Its 230mm height is purely for low barriers, not full-room privacy.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Old Library, a bustling community arts hub in Cardiff, needed a simple and  compliant way to add a valance to their modular stage. Their old system was heavy, cumbersome, and not certified as fire-retardant, posing a setup headache and  a potential safety issue.

"The Gopak panels were a breath of fresh air. They literally clip on in seconds, they look incredibly smart, and  knowing they're fire-retardant lets us all breathe a little easier. They’ve tidied up the look of our stage instantly."

Robert Davies – Venue Manager

The result was clear: stage setup time for events was reduced by 20%, and  the venue now fully complies with its fire safety obligations for stage dressings.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Before you start, unpack and  check that all plastic clips are present and  correct.
  • Simply align the top edge of the panel with the edge of your stage, table, or platform.
  • Firmly push the plastic clips over both the panel and  the surface edge at regular intervals.
  • That’s it! No tools, no fuss – just a quick and  secure fit.

Keeping It Going

  • To clean, just wipe away any dust or marks with a soft, damp cloth.
  • Avoid using any abrasive scourers or harsh chemical sprays which could damage the acrylic surface.
  • When not in use, store the panel flat or loosely rolled to prevent permanent creases.
  • Give the plastic clips a quick check every now and then to ensure they remain in good condition.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Screen

Not sure what fits best for your space? Here are a few things to consider before you buy.

Height Matters

Think about what you're screening. A low Gopak privacy screen 230mm, like this one, is for valances and  defining boundaries, while taller screens offer full privacy for changing rooms or private dining.

Prioritise Safety

For any public venue, always choose materials that are certified as fire-retardant. It’s a non-negotiable part of your legal duty of care and  a requirement for most insurance policies.

Consider Portability

Do you need to reconfigure your space often? Lightweight materials and  simple, tool-free fixings like clips will make your life significantly easier for day-to-day changes.

Match Your Aesthetic

Choose a colour and  style that complements your existing interior. A professional Gopak blue room divider panel can enhance your decor, whether it's modern, traditional, or vibrant.

Plan for Cleaning

Busy commercial environments get messy. Smooth, wipe-clean surfaces like acrylic are far more practical and  hygienic than fabric screens that can absorb spills and  odours.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does the screen attach to a surface?

A: It uses a series of simple but sturdy plastic clips that hook securely over the edge of a stage, table, or counter.

Q: Is the material transparent?

A: No, the deep blue acrylic is opaque, providing an effective visual barrier to hide whatever is behind it.

Q: Can I connect multiple panels to cover a longer area?

A: Yes, you can place multiple panels side-by-side to create a continuous, seamless valance or border for any length you need.

Q: What does 'fire retardant' actually mean?

A: It means the material has been chemically treated to significantly slow down the rate at which flames can spread, enhancing safety in public spaces.

Q: Is the panel flexible enough to go around corners?

A: The pleated design offers some minor flexibility, but it is primarily designed to be used in a straight line for the best look.

Q: How heavy is a single panel?

A: It's extremely light, weighing only 0.2kg. This makes it very easy for anyone to handle, move, and  install.

Q: Is any assembly or are any tools required?

A: No, none at all. The panels are ready to use straight out of the box with the included clips.

Q: How do I clean the screen?

A: A quick wipe with a soft, damp cloth is all that's needed to remove dust and  keep it looking smart.

Why Fire-Retardant Material is Non-Negotiable in Public Spaces

You’ll see 'fire retardant' mentioned, but what does it actually mean for your business? It’s not about making something fire-proof. Instead, the acrylic material is specially treated to significantly slow down the spread of flames. Think of it like a safety brake for a fire. In an emergency, this feature doesn't stop the fire, but it drastically reduces the speed at which it grows, giving staff and  customers precious extra time to evacuate safely. For any public-facing venue like a school, café, or hall, using certified fire-retardant furnishings isn't just a good idea—it's often a core requirement for insurance policies and  council safety inspections.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Schools & Community Halls: A perfect, fire-safe solution for creating backstage 'wings' or sectioning off areas during events.
  • Cafes & Bistros: Use this Gopak blue room divider panel to add low-level privacy between booths or hide counter clutter.
  • Places of Worship: Ideal for adding a decorative, professional valance to platforms or discreetly screening off sections.
  • Exhibition & Conference Centres: A quick and  easy way to define trade stands or create clear walkways for visitors.
