General concept of soil channels

Floor channels are systems of conduits embedded in the pavement or floor of a building, designed to house electrical, telecommunications, plumbing or other technical services. Its main function is to facilitate the orderly and safe distribution of cables, pipes and other technical elements, avoiding overhead or surface wiring.

These channels allow easy accessibility for maintenance, expansions or modifications without the need for major works, contributing to the aesthetics and functionality of the interior spaces. They are essential in commercial, industrial buildings, offices and public spaces that require orderly management of multiple facilities.

Standard dimensions and configurations

Floor channels are manufactured in different sizes and configurations depending on the capacity demand and the type of installation they must contain. The most common dimensions range from narrow channels for simple electrical cables to wider systems that allow the integration of larger diameter pipes and conduits.

The profiles can be rectangular or specially shaped to facilitate the insertion and extraction of cables, and generally have removable covers that guarantee protection and immediate access. The dimensions are also defined by regulations that ensure the safety and functionality of the system.

Materials used in manufacturing

The most common materials used in the manufacture of floor channels include stainless steel, aluminum, PVC and polypropylene. The choice of material depends on the installation environment, required strength and aesthetic considerations. Stainless steel is highly valued for its durability, corrosion resistance and modern appearance.
