Powerflor Low Profile, Raised Floor Panel
NOTE: Individual Powerflor panels (with carpet) are now available to purchase online. Refer to the ORDER PANELS tab at the bottom of this section.
The cornerstone feature is our raised floor panel molded of lightweight, strength re-enforced polycarbonate resin. Designed and tested to meet the highest industry load bearing standards, this composite material is PVC free and 100% recyclable.
Each full (50cm x 50cm) raised floor panel consists of four (4) of our 25cm x 25cm pedestals factory assembled to the 50cm carpet square (carpet color / pattern specified by the customer) resulting in a "quad section" panel assembly. The pedestals are secured to the carpet using a hot melt glue process that assures proper adhesion. Each complete panel weighs 8 lbs while capable of supporting loads up to 50,000 lbs per square foot. Each panel measures 3" High (including carpet). The completed floor panel allows all 4 of the 25cm pedestals to hinge at both center and cross-center lines, allowing the panel to sit firmly on the sub-floor without rocking. The conjoined quad section panel creates a stable platform, and can be provided with any 50cm square carpet tile of your choice.
The Powerflor outlet grommets are factory installed, in any combination of the four quadrants. This allows for integration of the correlating communication or electrical components per specification. Each full panel can accommodate up to 4 power or data ports.
The Powerflor panels are NOT mechanically secured to the sub-floor. In effect, this "floating floor" is contained by the four walls in the room. For applications where the Powerflor must be installed without available walls, a short, 3" high frame is constructed on-site to simulate a wall and then secure the floor. The floating floor design allows any panel to be relocated with any other panel, or replaced easily with no special tools or skilled labor.
