We catch up with the team at Tamlex to find out more about how its range of pre- fabricated solutions for steel cable management is saving contractors time and money on-site.
As a long-established British manufacturer of steel cable management products, at Tamlex, we take immense pride in both our heritage and our customer-centric approach. In an industry where efficiency and precision are of growing importance, our range of pre-fabricated solutions, including trapeze systems, custom bends, distribution board trunking, and bespoke colour options, are streamlining how electrical contractors operate on-site.
Meticulous design
Our pre-fabricated solutions are meticulously designed at our manufacturing facility in Telford to reduce waste, save time, and enhance the overall efficiency for on-site installers.
Working with customers to develop products that are pre-engineered and ready to install has led to many avoiding last minute issues such as on-site fabrication errors and material wastage. This not only speeds up the installation process but also ensures a higher standard of accuracy, significantly reducing the likelihood of costly reworks.
Whether dealing with one-off bespoke products or large call-off orders, Tamlex’s solutions are designed to meet the unique requirements of today’s industry demands.
Our trapeze systems provide a robust and flexible support framework for cable installations, while our custom bends offer precise, pre-formed angles that eliminate the need for time-consuming on-site adjustments. The distribution board trunking is another stand-out product, facilitating neat and efficient cable management around electrical distribution boards.
We understand that cable management isn’t just about functionality but also about integration into the broader aesthetic and structural design of a project. Our bespoke colour options allow for seamless blending or bold contrasts, depending on the project requirements.
This customisation extends beyond colour to include a range of finishes and materials, ensuring that our products not only perform exceptionally but also enhance the visual appeal of any installation.
Our commitment to excellence extends beyond the products themselves. We offer comprehensive technical support, field sales representatives and design capabilities to assist our clients throughout the project.
Our experienced team is on hand to provide guidance – from initial designs to final production – ensuring that every project runs smoothly and efficiently.
Bespoke delivery options
To further enhance efficiency, we offer bespoke delivery options tailored to the specific needs of each project. Our call-off delivery service allows for floor-by-floor distribution, minimising on-site storage needs and reducing handling times.
Direct-to-site delivery ensures that products arrive exactly where they’re needed, while our labelling system provides clear identification of goods, simplifying the handling on-site.
Our commitment to delivering products in packs, as per installation requirements, ensures that contractors receive everything they need for each phase of the project, reducing downtime and streamlining workflow.
Lots more on offer
Our pre-fabricated service has been available for many years now and is natural addition to a comprehensive steel cable management product portfolio which is constantly evolving and expanding. Recently our IP4X trunking was redesigned to speed up installation times by incorporating an IP kit into each accessory.
Furthermore, our strut offering has been enhanced by a brand-new rolling line being commissioned in our Telford-based factory last year. This year has seen the launch of our new pedestal boxes, now available in different configurations and colours.
In an industry where time and precision are critical, our pre-fabricated steel cable management solutions offer a clear advantage. By reducing waste, speeding up installation times, and providing tailored, high-quality products, we help electrical contractors achieve their deadlines with greater efficiency and reliability.
