Staffed by experts in the production and use of enclosures, the Centre is able to provide detailed information on the performance of all materials and their compliance with the standards in use in almost every country.
Fibox has supplied Cardmaster II enclosures to Medem UK, specialist manufacturers of gas detection proving systems for educational institutions.
The Gas Pressure Proving System (GPPS-A) from Medem UK provides control of the gas supply directly from laboratories and classrooms, which reduces potential interference by pranksters and increases the availability of quality teaching time.
Nigel Thornley, Managing Director of Medem (UK), commented recently: "Fibox enclosures are a quality product offering outstanding performance.
The excellent production advice, contributed significantly to the success of our new GPPS-A range, which uses Cardmaster II enclosures to house the control gear.
Our detection proving systems deliver complete control of gas pressure and leakage to ensure the safe operation of classroom environments.
