Delivering across multiple stations and contractors under tight construction timelines required seamless coordination and flexibility.

Key challenges included:

• Designing custom-perforated SAS200 aluminium ceiling tiles to align with the architectural vision of each station.
• Integrating acoustic insulation without compromising aesthetics or access to critical ceiling services.
• Designing an integrated service channel that seamlessly ties in with the custom ceiling tiles.
• Managing logistics and supply schedules for a high-volume public infrastructure rollout.

Progressive Materials worked collaboratively with contractors and station architects to supply and deliver a technically robust and visually striking ceiling system tailored to each station’s unique requirements.

• Custom Engineering: The SAS200 tiles were manufactured with bespoke perforations to meet acoustic targets while enhancing the visual rhythm of each concourse and platform area.
• Acoustic Performance: Integrated acoustic insulation was specified to reduce reverberation and enhance commuter comfort across open transit zones.
• System Versatility: The SAS200 system enabled quick on-site adjustments, supporting smooth integration with lighting, security, and HVAC elements.
• End-to-End Support: Progressive Materials provided technical guidance from specification through to installation, ensuring delivery met tight program milestones.

This transformative project not only advances the future of rail in Perth but also sets a new benchmark in public space design, where infrastructure meets innovation. Progressive Materials is proud to play a part in shaping a more connected and vibrant Western Australia.
