The modern office environment is constantly evolving and in order to compete in the global marketplace, changes and churn rates are increasingly high. .
Buildings need to be safely adaptable with minimum disruption.
Adapting to constant change, requires buildings designed not only for today, but for the future.
Kingspan’s Building Technology Platform® provides a fully accessible interstitial space to house critical services such as power, voice, data, heating, ventilation and cooling systems. Fully integrating with building design and internal architecture, Kingspan facilitates quicker occupancy compared to traditional service distribution systems.
Part of the system – TateFlex® modular wiring – provides a ‘plug and play’ solution which ‘future-proofs’ the building. When changes are required above the floor, the TateFlex® system can be moved to where it is needed. A workstation may be relocated with quick cable management changes without disruption to services.
Kingspan Access Floors provides the flexibility, cost effectiveness, efficiency of churn and environmental responsibility required in any new building designs or refurbishment projects.
Why an Access Floor?
Construction programmes are reduced by at least two weeks per floor
due to elimination of a sand cement screed.
As warm air rises, considerable cost savings are achieved by an underfloor
air plenum delivering conditioned air exactly where it is needed - compared
with the traditional uneconomic alternative of forcing conditioned air
from the ceiling.
Maximum flexibility for the installation and reconfiguring of services
to equipment and workstations a matter of hours.
In new construction the use of an access floor for total service distribution
reduces the overall building height by about 13%. Or, for the same height,
you can increase the number of floors.
