MARSHALL TUFFLEX Material choices Compliant product As a pioneer of the British plastics extrusion industry, East-Sussex based Marshall-Tuffl ex offers aesthetically pleasing, cost-effective and easy to install PVC-U cable management systems. It has a solution for most applications and for more demanding projects, users can consider aluminium, steel and GRP systems. With regulations and directives such as CE Marking, RoHS, REACH and LVD, the importance of maintaining compliance is crucial to ensure safe and reliable products that are fi t for purpose. To support this process, Marshall-Tuffl ex is a member of BEAMA, the trade association representing manufacturers of electrical infrastructure products and systems. BIM compatibility Punched mini trunking increases speed and ease of installation. For government building projects, building information modelling will dictate which systems can be considered. Only those that have been created as BIM objects within a recognised library can be entertained. Having our range of products available in Revit format, directly from our website or our BIM host, with all the relevant parametric data, enables customers to embed our products into their designs. This allows the automatic creation of material schedules and ensures the system can be installed by the contractor with minimal fuss and no costly surprises due to services or structures clashing.
