8. SYNERGY – COMBINING ALUMINIUM AND PLASTIC IN PERFECT HARMONY

It’s no exaggeration to say that SYNERGY was a major departure for OKW. It was our first enclosure to combine aluminium with plastic. And not just any aluminium, not just any plastic, and not just any construction method…

Award-winning SYNERGY’s AlMgSi main case is matt anodised to create a beautiful high-end finish. The plastic top and base are moulded from robust ASA+PC-FR, which combines the UV stability of ASA with the strength of polycarbonate. All the sections are held together by an innovative column-based connection system that leaves no visible fixing screws. Look for the tamperproof Torx screws and you’ll find them tucked away on the base, concealed from view.

To have launched one such enclosure was bold and ambitious. But we went live on day one with four shapes (square, circular, rectangular and obround), each in three plan sizes and in three heights – creating a choice of 36 different permutations.

Martin Nußberger said: “The special feature of SYNERGY is its high-quality appearance. Right from the very start, the main focus of development was the quality of the materials. The timeless basic geometric shapes, the discreetly contoured and trimmed operating panels, as well as the intelligent installation technology, results in enclosures that meet the aesthetic demands of your customers.”
