Prefabrication of modular support systems
How pre-assembly, kitting and cutting services get cable/pipe supports to site, ready to install
On-site production and installation of modular support systems may result in issues like project delays, budget overruns, material storage challenges and waste, or even accidents. Hilti’s prefabrication services can help you to avoid them all.
What are Hilti Prefabrication Services?
At Hilti we offer solutions from BIM-based design to the validation/documentation of your cable and pipe supports. We know the challenges construction projects face when it comes to timeline and space constraints, skilled labor costs and shortages, accident risks, material waste and transportation costs.
Ordering, cutting and assembling hundreds of supports for piping, HVAC and cable trays on the jobsite represents a huge challenge! A lot of time is spent sorting all the small components needed, not to mention storing, transporting and cutting all the strut channels to length before finally installing them on your jobsite.
Our off-site prefabrication services, carried out by specialists in our Prefabrication Centers, are designed to tackle these challenges – helping to improve your productivity by reducing costs and installation time while also bringing the highest quality standards.
Full pre-assembly of customized trapezes, cantilevers, goal posts and multi-trade supports; kitting the right components; and cutting strut channels to length are how our prefabrication services help you to save money and time on your project.
