SAS 310

SAS 310 is a suspended metal ceiling system offered by Progressive Materials. It uses lay-in metal pan tiles supported by an exposed top hat or tee bar grid. This setup allows for easy access and high durability in commercial environments.

The system allows tool-free access. Tiles lift and tilt, making it simple for contractors to reach services in the ceiling void without removing the grid or damaging panels.

Progressive Materials supplies this system with either a two-way or one-way exposed grid. The standard setup is two-way using a top hat or tee bar profile, but custom layouts are available on request.

Tiles are typically 1200 or 1500 mm long, and 300, 400 or 600 mm wide. They can be custom made in millimetre increments to suit project-specific module sizes.

It weighs approximately 6 to 7.5 kg per square metre, including the tile and associated components. This makes it suitable for a wide range of ceiling applications.

You can include acoustic pads with up to 50dB sound attenuation. Standard options include acoustic fleece or mineral wool with a foil backing and black tissue face, improving both sound absorption and insulation.

Yes, tiles can be manufactured with apertures for lights and other services. Panels may also be post-painted to match the chosen finish, and stiffeners can be added to support central fixtures. Custom service tiles can be supplied to seamlessly integrate with building services. 

The system is offered in all standard SAS finishes supplied by Progressive Materials. Bespoke finishes are available on request, allowing flexibility for design-led projects.

Each tile can hold up to 7kg. Any fixture heavier than this must be independently supported to ensure long-term safety and stability.

This ceiling system has a projected life expectancy of 25 years. Its robust performance and easy access features make it ideal for commercial interiors requiring regular maintenance access.
