Application

Interior ceilings.

Description

The modular system uses mounting rails with clips at pre-determined spacings to fix the aluminium battens in place. The battens use a simple push-fit connection to engage with the clips, resulting in fast installation and completely concealed fixings.

Our Click-on Batten system allows you to specify a combination of our profiles, finishes and any spacing required to create a look unique to your project.

Use our online Price & Spec tool to quickly specify projects, using the simple drag and drop interface to create your design. Price and specification data is generated in real-time, then easily exported in PDF format.

Barriers in ceiling void

-

Fire barriers

-

Manufacturer guidance

It is important to understand the required group rating of the components of your ceiling according to AS/NZS 3837:1998. This is determined by factors such as building class, building type, location of the ceiling and whether the building is sprinklered.

Acoustic barriers

Autex 7mm Acoustic Panel.

Manufacturer guidance

Autex 7mm Acoustic Panel, PET, 50% Recycled content. Our ceiling batten system provides a perfect opportunity to introduce acoustic performance into your space. The system does this by utilising the batten spacing for acoustic diffusion in conjunction with our proprietary acoustic backing board that is positioned above the battens. By adding any available acoustic batts above our acoustic backing board the acoustic performance will be increased.

Openings

Pivot Hatch systems available for accessing plenum.

Light fittings

Manufacturer guidance

Penetration options available.

Fire protection

If Group 3 is required, all solid timber and aluminium battens are compliant with any of our standard coatings for timber or aluminium. If Group 1 or 2 is required for aluminium battens, they are compliant with any of our coatings: powder coating, anodising, real timber veneer or wood finish aluminium. Where a timber batten look is required for Group 1 or 2, using Real Timber Veneer on aluminium, or Wood Finish Aluminium, is a very effective and high quality way to achieve this. Note – Real timber veneer is applicable for interiors only whereas Wood Finish Aluminium can be used for interiors as well as exteriors. Our standard acoustic backing board is Group 3 compliant, however we do have a Group 1 version that must be specified to ensure Group 1 compliance.

Track system

Ceiling track system.

Manufacturer guidance

Ceiling track system replaces the traditional furring channel. The track is pre-indexed with customizable spacings. Mounting track is available in four different options, each suiting a particular application.
