Widely installed to cover exterior services, such as gas supply and low carbon distributed heating system pipes, UK Boxings’ tough metal pipe boxing is also used to conceal pipework and systems associated with ground source or air source heat pumps.
Bespoke manufactured to the requirements of each individual project from corrosion resistant 2mm thick aluminium, they also incorporate a PPC finish, which can be selected from a wide range of BS and RAL colours to contrast or blend in with the surroundings.
In addition to external applications, metal boxing is also used on interior social housing projects, where fire sprinklers are installed, to conceal runs of pipework where there are no sprinkler heads. As the boxing is non-combustible, it can aid compliance with fire safety requirements.
Our durable and weather resistant metal pipe boxing not only conceals and protects, but also helps improve the finish of completed projects while offering a choice of fixing methods for extra versatility, including concealed angle brackets or an integral flange option.
With both fixing options, the metal profiles allow them to be readily secured to external walls, while access panels and lockable doors can be incorporated to provide a simple solution for inspection and maintenance, while retaining security.
