SupaSlat is supplied as a complete panel system to ensure factory-level quality, fire compliance, and rapid installation. By manufacturing the panels off-site to your project’s exact dimensions, there’s no need for on-site cutting, eliminating mess, waste, and risk to the fire-rated finishes. It also means consistent appearance, acoustic performance, and Euroclass B fire certification across the entire system. This approach removes the guesswork and guarantees performance where loose slats often fall short.

• The slat is manufactured with our specialist VFR core which is more dimensionally stable than timber.

• FR Laminate finish & matching edging to all visible surfaces.

• Premium grade EchoTone Acoustic Backing is fitted directly behind the slats with battens providing the framework for the panel.

Vtec’s SupaSlat range is an FR-resistant premium slat panel. It is tested as fully-assembled panels and is classified as B-s2,d0.

This means you can select from 7488 standard options alone, confident that your selection meets Euroclass B!

Yes. Both Supaslat and Microslat are tested and classified as full panel assemblies to Euroclass B fire performance standards.

Unlike individual timber slats installed separately on-site, these systems ensure complete compliance with fire regulations—reducing the risk of non-compliance and rework.

Supaslat and Microslat are supplied as pre-assembled, modular panels, significantly reducing installation time compared to individual slats.

Microslat panels are ready to cut without compromising their fire performance, and Supaslat panels are custom-manufactured to your project dimensions—no cutting, no mess, and fewer labour hours.

Both SupaSlat and MicroSlat are supplied as pre-assembled panel systems to deliver superior performance, faster installation, and full fire compliance. Unlike traditional slatted solutions using individual strips, these systems are manufactured off-site to exact specifications, ensuring consistency in appearance, acoustic function, and Euroclass B fire rating.

SupaSlat panels are made to measure, eliminating the need for on-site cutting. MicroSlat panels are precision-engineered and are delivered ready to cut to fit and are tested to retain their fire performance even with exposed edges. This modular approach removes the risks, delays, and inconsistencies associated with assembling loose slats on-site.

Unlike slatted designs built manually on-site, Supaslat and Microslat offer consistent quality, hidden fixings, pre-integrated acoustics, and coordinated service layouts. This eliminates the risk of errors, poor visual alignment, or compliance failures, and speeds up your project delivery.

Yes. Supaslat is fully modelled in 3D before manufacture, allowing for precise service integration and access panel planning. Microslat can also accommodate service cutouts where needed. This ensures seamless coordination with M&E systems from the outset—no surprises on-site.

The acoustic performance is integrated into the panel system. Supaslat uses EchoTone acoustic backing with up to 26 standard colour options. Microslat also includes EchoTone. This built-in approach ensures consistent, reliable performance, unlike loose acoustic components that can be forgotten or mis-installed on-site.

Both systems are value-engineered to suit a wide range of budgets without compromising on design intent. The modular nature, reduced on-site labour, and minimal waste all contribute to lower overall installed cost compared to traditional slatted systems.

Supaslat is available in a wide selection of Supalami laminates, to suit commercial architectural interiors. Microslat offers Supalami timber-style laminate slats that are durable, lightweight, and suited for high-traffic environments. Both can be specified to match design and performance requirements.
