Artopex
Xtension

A space-saving hybrid of desking and panels — full-to-the-floor 1″ laminate panels, simple construction, and clean integrated power.

Description Gallery Finishes Downloads

Overview

Xtension is Artopex’s hybrid of desking and panels — freestanding desks joined by full-to-the-floor 1″ laminate panels that divide the space. Simple, space-efficient and value-priced. Here’s how it works, and where it fits.

Hybrid desking & laminate panels

Xtension is a hybrid of desking and panels — workstations built around full-to-the-floor laminate panels, just 1″ thick, that divide open-plan space. Because the panels are thin and simply built, they save floor space and cost less than a conventional frame-and-tile system, while integrated power and cable management keep runs tidy. One tradeoff to plan for: the laminate panels don’t absorb sound, so rooms using Xtension will usually want separate acoustic treatment. Originally a Logiflex line, it’s now part of the Artopex brand.

Why we believe in this

Xtension is a smart value play for open floors that need real division without the bulk or cost of a full panel system — the 1″ laminate panels save both floor space and money, and it reads clean and finished. Just plan the acoustics separately, since the panels don’t absorb sound. For the right project, it’s a lot of dividing power for the money.

Our take

So here’s when we’d specify Xtension — and when we’d point you elsewhere.

We believe in it, which is exactly why we’ll be straight about fit. The honest version:

Specify it when

  • You want a simple, space-efficient hybrid — freestanding desks joined by full-height 1″ laminate panels.
  • You want a light divide without a full panel system.
  • You want it value-priced, quick and economical.
  • You value a manufacturer that shares our standards and backs us up when a project needs it.

Consider something else when

  • You need real acoustic privacy and enclosure — a full panel system fits better.
  • You want heavy power and data integration.
  • You want a premium look.
  • You want maximum shoulder-to-shoulder density — benching goes further.
Where we land: Xtension is Artopex’s value hybrid of desking and panels — freestanding desks divided by full-height laminate panels, simple and space-efficient. When you need real acoustic enclosure or integrated power, we’ll point you to a panel system.

Frequently asked

About Xtension.

What is Xtension best suited for?
Open floors that need to divide space simply and affordably, where room acoustics are handled separately.
What makes it a “hybrid”?
It combines desking with full-to-the-floor 1″ laminate panels that divide the space — part desk system, part panel system.
Does it help with acoustics?
No — the laminate panels don’t absorb sound, so plan separate acoustic treatment for the room.
