SAS International launch new product with The Think Tank PR campaign

While structural engineers specify the amount of necessary slab deflection, architects have to ensure that internal walls can meet the technical demands placed upon them and ensure the demands of aesthetic finishes.

Glass partitioning and drywall systems meet the required levels of deflection, but as they are usually supplied from different manufacturers, integration between the two was not considered. Yet modern space planning usually requires a mix of glazed and drywall configurations meaning that integration detailing of these two elements is often left to the architect.

Interior fit-out solutions manufacturer SAS International overcame this challenge to provide a solution that would meet structural and aesthetic demands in a single system. System 8000 is a fully-glazed frameless partitioning system suitable for a range of workplace interiors.

Launched in April 2012, the system was developed with 64 different sections; this enables the system to work with 26 different types of glass including toughened, laminated and fire rated, and provide an array of options to meet differing project requirements.
