PVC-U TRUNKING Polyvinyl chloride unplasticised (PVC-U) is one of the most successful modern synthetic materials.
It makes excellent use of scarce resources, is long-lasting and safe in production, use and is widely recycled.
PVC-U cable containment is easy to install, light to handle and very cost-effective. It is an excellent choice of material
for the majority of commercial, education and healthcare environments and has been more thoroughly researched than
almost any other synthetic material. PVC-U is also self-extinguishing and therefore does not cause flame spread.
We have a wide range of PVC-U trunking solutions in different heights, designs, cable capacities for the distribution of
power and data. Whatever the installation requirements, there will always be a perfect solution with Marshall-Tufflex.

'One Piece Latching' basically means that the raceway is '1' piece allowing for easy installation. One side acts like a hinge
while the other side 'clicks' together to form the ideal raceway!
