MEK lighting support rails for concept shopping centres

Home appliances and electronics chain Gigantti and Norwegian sports store XXL opened a new 6000 square metre store in Pori in the end of 2017.

Full scale concept stores were built for both of the chains. The project begun in the beginning of 2017 and the stores were opened for public at the end of the year. The developer and constructor chosen was SSR Länsi-Suomi Oy. Sähkö Pori Oy was responsible for all electrical construction and installations.

Sähkö Pori´s experienced electrician specialists used lots of Meka´s products. Over 500 metres of painted cable trays, 400 metres cable trunkigs and cable ladders KS20 were installed. The 6000 square metre new building also required almost two kilometres of painted lighting support rails MEK.

”Installations went as planned, however small changes emerge on the site once in a while. End customer of both buildings was the same and communication was good from the start to the final end.” says Marko Vähätalo from Sähkö-Pori. Meka Pro and Sähkö-Pori have cooperated previously too. ”Deliveries from Meka have been always on time and without any problems” says Vähätalo feeling thankful.

One specialty was CB supports designed directly for this project´s needs. “We have seen a need for this type of a support for a long time now. We have tested Meka´s CB supports previously in smaller projects, but this time we used dozens of CB supports to build the new stores for Gigantti and XXL.” tells Teemu Leino, the CEO of Sähkö-Pori. “When we want to install two cable trays on top of each other in these types of sites and buildings, the CB support is invaluable. We have tested this support for a long time now, it is durable, and it has worked very well in installations.” adds Leino.

The opening of XLL and Gigantti was celebrated on consecutive days in November. Many people waited from the early morning to get in as it happens at many openings of new department stores. At both stores cables are routed cleanly and unnoticeably. CB supports finish cable tray installations nicely.
