Case studies
Specialised applications
The Heathrow Airport T5 project required bespoke stainless steel floor
boxes delivering access to data and power supply systems vital for the
safe and effective running of the airport and visually compatible with
the floor finishes of the terminal building.
Several hundred of these access units were built to sit flush with the floor and designed to
comply with Health and Safety legislation for pedestrian traffic.
Working closely with SPIE Matthew Hall and BAA, Marshall-Tufflex collaborated to
produce rectangular, round and square floor boxes in various sizes. Many of the
boxes have lockable lids and all are fabricated in heavy duty stainless steel to take
higher point load than standard floor boxes, enabling them to cope with wheeled
traffic and protect the cables within. The boxes accommodate CAT 6 cabling with
provision for CAT 7 and CAT 7a systems.
