Stretch Metal
Lay-InBandraster
Stretch Metal from Hunter Douglas
is a highly versatile designer material
giving extra visual effects to ceilings.
It is very easy to customise ceilings
by varying the types of mesh, theirarrangement, the lighting andthe colour.

Lay-In Bandraster
TILES
Lay-In tiles can also be used installedon Bandraster system (50-100 mm).
By pushing the tile upwards it is easy
to gain access to the plenum without
the use of tools.
Stretch Metal tiles are ideal for solutions
where either a high level of acoustic
absorption is required or where visualand physical transparency of the ceilingis requested. The systems are also ideal
for solutions where regular access into
the plenum is required. Because eachtile has flanges that simply rest on thebandraster profiles, the access to theplenum is achieved by lifting the tile up
into the area above the ceiling.

ACOUSTIC PERFORMANCE
Using acoustic pads on top of theStretch Metal panels offers exceptional
acoustic performance. The thickness ofthe pads can be chosen depending on
the required acoustical values.
The acoustic absorption value can reach
αw 1 with an acoustical pad of 85 mm.

Material
TRANSPARENCYThe tiles can be made from various
mesh types. This results in different
optical effects if the natural or artificial
light comes from the plenum. It is
important to realise that stretch metal
meshes do have a direction. Dependingon viewing direction the mesh appears
more or less open. This influences lightcoming through the material but also thevisiblity of installations in the plenum.
The physical transparency can also be
used for smoke extraction and sprinkler
operation in case of fire.

COATING
Stretch Metal tiles are all powder coated materials. Durable powder coatings forexterior use are optionally available.
COLOUR RANGE
The standard colour range consists of RAL and NCS colours, including chrome.
Other special colours are available on request.
­QUALITY
Our focus on quality ensures the highest standard of production process, material,machinery and finished product. The superior durability of Hunter Douglas products
translates into lower costs during the life cycle of the product due to longer life
expectancy and lower maintenance costs. Our company processes are
ISO 9001 certified.

FIRE BEHAVIOUR
HunterDouglas ® metal ceilings areclassified incombustible, and will
therefore not contribute to fires. Whenceilings need to protect the structural
integrity of a building, HunterDouglas ®
ceilings offer a wide range of practicalsolutions with regards to fire resistanceand fire stability. Further information isavailable on request.

INSTALLATION
It is necessary for all versions that qualitative suspension systems are used. The systems must be stable, aligned and leveledso that they comply with the requirements of the panels. For information on installation, refer to the applicable assembly
instruction leaflets.

HunterDouglas ® Ceilings - Stretch MetalMesh Types Tiles & Planks
Stretch Metal consists of metal sheet with diamond or square shaped
holes. The stretch metal material is made with a tool that simultaneously
cuts and stretches the sheets. As a result the mesh is created without
any waste of material.
