We were contacted by an installer in November 2015 regarding a new rising mains project that was starting late December 2015 – early January 2016.

Rising main

The rising mains busbar system would need to include a fire barrier for each floor and due to the tight space in the rising main duct the busbar would need to be supplied in smaller custom lengths.

Drawing

A completely bespoke project is a challenge any time of year – let alone a few weeks before Christmas where factories are approaching a two week shutdown. However, never ones to shy away from a challenge – we sent the site drawings to our design office in Italy who promptly returned a detailed design. Both end user and installer were happy with the design and proposal made and subsequently placed an order.

The goods arrived on site on time with each bespoke length labelled making it easy for the installer to determine how it fits together whilst also ensuring that fire barriers are positioned correctly. Both the installer and end user were very happy as this entirely bespoke project was quoted, designed and delivered within 6 weeks, this was due to the flexibility shown by our Italian factory ensuring that this project was prioritised.
