Operating room refurbishment


Prefabricated operating room with modular DuPont™ Corian® wall systems, antibacterial finishes, glazed panels, and technical modules designed to ensure efficiency, safety, and operational comfort.

The prefabricated operating room was built using TrueSpace modular wall systems, clad with DuPont™ Corian® panels with a thickness of 12 mm. This technology ensures rapid installation and easy inspection, while guaranteeing quality, durability, and maximum ease of cleaning—essential requirements in healthcare environments.
The room features solid panels in Glacier White, color-coded technical panels to distinguish the different building services lines, glazed modules for monitors of various sizes with decorative high-resolution digital print inserts, and a stainless steel instrument pass-through module.
The entrance wall integrates a room control command module and a glazed module for a 24’’ workstation with fold-down keyboard, dedicated to the management of hospital applications.
Special attention was given to the air return corners, designed with modules inclined at 135° relative to the wall—a design choice that optimizes airflow and facilitates maintenance. The inspectable return air grilles, also made of DuPont™ Corian®, ensure aesthetic and functional continuity with the rest of the structure.
Together, these elements create a highly technological, hygienically impeccable, and visually harmonious space, where comfort, safety, and precision converge to best support the daily work of healthcare professionals.
