Hilton chooses Howe Green floor boxes for more safety and lower bills.

Access cover manufacturer Howe Green has a bespoke floor box to help prevent people plugging in where they shouldn’t and reduce the risk of unwanted trip hazards in public spaces.

The discreet stainless steel boxes were originally developed for the public lounge of the London Hilton Hotel at Tower Bridge where many of the original boxes were damaged and in poor condition. As well as being unsightly, some posed trip hazards with lids and cable outlets not sitting flush with the surrounding floor. In several cases, removable box lids had been lifted by members of the public seeking power to charge laptops and mobile devices. Often, the hotels own lamps and equipment had been unplugged in the process, leaving trailing cables across the floor.

Howe Green’s floor boxes are the ideal solution for highly trafficked public areas such hotels, leisure centres, libraries, airports, restaurants and café’s. They have a discreet design with minimal show edge and a series of cable outlets. Most importantly, they are lockable for increased security and safety and suitable for all floor finishes.
