Process Phase

Mila-wall: modular wall system for Canterbury

Built in minutes. Rebuilt for the next exhibition.

Developed and manufactured by MBA, Mila-wall uses a patented, almost tool-free connector that joins complete wall modules into finished spatial structures – and separates them just as quickly. Surfaces remain virtually seamless, the technology stays hidden, and the system is TÜV GS certified.

A modular wall system for venues in Canterbury whose spaces are reimagined season after season. Because every component is reusable, the same stock returns in a completely new layout for the next exhibition instead of ending up as waste. Sustainable and endlessly reconfigurable – a long-term asset for the institution rather than a one-off expense.

Wall systems for museums and exhibitions in Canterbury

Temporary, mobile or permanent: Mila-wall adapts to your exhibition.

  1. Temporary walls for museums

    Temporary walls for museums in Canterbury often have to look as permanent as the architecture around them for the weeks of an exhibition. Freestanding exhibition walls and partition walls go up in minutes and disappear cleanly after the programme; height-adjustable feet compensate for uneven historic floors.
  2. Mobile wall systems for museums

    Mobile wall systems for museums in Canterbury need to be as mobile as the loans and touring exhibitions themselves. The aluminium-framed panels withstand repeated transport and are light enough for in-house teams – in historic galleries as well as new buildings.
  3. Museum wall systems

    Museum wall systems in Canterbury have to handle very different curatorial approaches: Series 100 with an aluminium edge for flagship venues, Series 160 for long freestanding runs and heavy hangs, Series 840 with a wooden edge for tighter budgets, and SCENARIO as a plug-in system for pop-ups.
  4. Modular exhibition walls

    Modular exhibition walls in Canterbury serve museums, galleries, design studios and universities from a single stock: build heights of up to six metres, corners and angles without custom construction, and the same connection logic for every project.
  5. Temporary exhibition wall systems

    Temporary exhibition wall systems in Canterbury combine speed and a clean finish with Mila-wall: invisible connections, no visible technology – and 176 surfaces that are low-reflection, rich in colour and scratch-resistant, either permanently adhesive or removable without residue.
  6. Modular walls for exhibitions

    Modular walls for exhibitions in Canterbury must switch between Old Masters, history, design and contemporary art – and a single platform can carry this whole range. The lightweight honeycomb core in an aluminium frame remains repairable, and a stock typically pays for itself by around its fourth use.

Museums in Canterbury: 10 museums that show what museum walls need to deliver

From Canterbury and its university campus to the coast at Whitstable, Margate and Folkestone and the towns of Kent, the region's museums and galleries offer a busy programme of changing exhibitions. Turner Contemporary brings international art to the Margate seafront, Maidstone Museum and Dover Museum present regularly changing exhibitions alongside their collections, and The Historic Dockyard Chatham hosts major touring shows in its historic galleries. The demands on museum walls could hardly be more varied: listed historic buildings and medieval interiors on one side, large modern galleries and exhibition halls on the other. Mila-wall is made for exactly this range.

Whether art museum, national museum or exhibition hall: museums across Europe and worldwide already work with Mila-wall museum walls.
