by Brianna Crandall — June 20, 2014—FreeAxez captured Gold in the Workplace Technologies category of the Best of NeoCon Competition at last week’s NeoCon show in Chicago with its “game-changing” distribution system powering the company’s access flooring system for wire management.
Since the solution frees facilities professionals from limitations caused by power access in fixed locations, an office layout can reportedly be reconfigured at will with little impact to facility staff. The company says that FreeAxez Power is a catalyst for the adaptive office and collaborative space.
FreeAxez Power, the 100% modular plug-n-play modular power distribution solution for the FreeAxez 70 low-profile access-floor component system, is engineered to transform how electrical power distribution is implemented in the modern office environment. Longitudinal power tracks in a low-profile access flooring system allow devices and furniture to connect anywhere along the track, and floor boxes, desks and equipment are added or relocated in minutes, says the company.
FreeAxez Power optimizes architecture and aesthetics since the system can be repositioned, redeployed, reused or recycled in its original state, in any building, in perpetuity, claims the company. Bus tracks are designed to fit perfectly in the access flooring channels, which are made to be opened in seconds without tools.
Individual electrical “home runs” are said to be eliminated, saving time, costs and resources. FreeAxez says the product can even save electrical construction costs by more than 30 percent, including material. The system reportedly installs for less than the wiring package in pre-wired furniture, plus it reduces consumption of copper and steel, points out the company.
