1. Excellent Insulation: PVC is a non-conductive material, providing inherent electrical insulation and improving safety by
protecting against accidental contact with live wires.
2. Fire Retardant (Self-Extinguishing): Good quality PVC trunking is formulated to be flame-retardant. It won't easily catch fire and will stop burning once the flame source is removed.
3. Easy Installation & Flexibility:
* Simple to cut (with a saw or knife).
* Easy to bend (often with gentle hand pressure or minimal heating).
* Features lids for quick access to cables.
* Allows for straightforward additions or changes to wiring later.
4. Low Maintenance: Requires minimal upkeep; easy to clean (usually just wipe down).
5. Aesthetic & Neat: Provides a clean, organized look for cables, hiding them from view. Available in common colors like white, grey, and black to blend with decor.
6. Versatile: Comes in a wide range of sizes, profiles (rectangular, circular, mini, etc.), and accessories (corners, junctions,
end caps) to suit various applications and cable volumes.
In short: PVC trunking is a popular choice because it's affordable, light, tough, safe, easy to work with, and keeps cables neatly
organized in homes, offices, and industrial settings.
