GIA Flexbox® efficient for Amsterdam City Harbour Hotel

Curious about our efficiency for top locations?

Discover the Amsterdam City Harbour Hotel !

The construction site of the Amsterdam City Harbour Hotel is a transitional area between living and working and forms the entrance to the Cruquius working area. The building was designed to connect with the surrounding buildings on the Eastern Docklands. The building consists of a characteristic volume, in which various cut-outs have been made. The entrances to the various functions are all located on the same courtyard. Visitors to the restaurant on the seventh floor can enjoy spectacular views. Definitely worth it!

The 11-storey hotel is built above a 2-storey basement and counts 245 hotel rooms and 85 extended stay apartments. With so many floors and room types, there is no other option than to opt for efficient electrical cabling. How can you electrically connect 11 + 2 floors and power all room types in an efficient manner?

GIA Systems Flexbox® distribution boxes

The Flexbox® junction box stands for faster, better and more reliable installation. Thanks to the patented system of copper plates there is no internal heating, no floating zero, minimal transition resistance and voltage drop. Moreover, the production process is CEBEC and KEMA certified!

Since time is a very expensive concept in the modern world (‘Time is money’), GIA Systems customises and pre-wires its Flexbox® distribution boxes. In combination to GIA plugs and cables, your electrical cabling ends up in plug-and-play operation. Not only does that make cabling fun, it also fastens your work pace.

Faster is not always better? It does, if you, as an installer, can easily keep track, and you do not have to check every time which plug has to be inserted and where. The risk of installation errors is therefore reduced to zero.

Our cooperation with the Schoonderbeek Installation Group

The Schoonderbeek installation group, which provided the electrical cabling for the Amsterdam City Harbour Hotel, also agrees with our way of thinking. The mission of the Schoonderbeek installation group is to ensure that the electrical infrastructure is safe and sound. Quality, commitment, efficiency and sustainability are key commitments. And let that be exactly what GIA Systems is all about: efficiency at its very best!

Your installation needs re-wiring or extension? It’s all possible, without ending-up with a cable spaghetti! By doing it our way, the floors and rooms of the Amsterdam City Harbour Hotel can already meet the futuristic demands of their visitors…
