The expansion will deliver a new, fully equipped and staffed Product Engineering Development Laboratory, six adjustable sized expansion bays and associated offices. It also boasts a dedicated community and multifunctional space for events, training, industry collaboration and networking. A kitchen and dining area is also a key component, which contains timber Click-on Battens across the ceiling and walls.

Timber Screens, Walls and Ceilings
Timber is a strong influence throughout the interior on various surfaces, bringing durability, warmth, biophilic health benefits and enanced functionality to the space. Click-on Screens are added to common areas as a way of creating spatial separation from distinct areas. Screens also add aesthetic value with a change in iteration of timber compared with the walls and ceilings. Click-on Battens feature on the walls and ceilings in smaller profile size and are spaced closer together.
The two products work in harmony, complementing each other and elevating the usuability of the space. One that is bright, energetic and welcoming.
