Sustainable Building Installations – Your Connection to smart Efficiency
Building installation work is more than just power distribution. In times of energy crises, decarbonization, and increasing regulation, it is becoming a central driver of sustainability – and connection components play a key role in this.
Since our founding in 1964, we have pursued the vision of becoming a global specialist for electromechanical connection elements and system components for lighting applications, household appliances, and building installations. Based on this mission, we focus on quality and innovation, but also on environmental and social responsibility: with certifications like ISO 14001 and the continuous development of our products toward sustainability, we have been setting new benchmarks.
A brief look into the past:
Historically, electrical installations primarily served to distribute power for lighting and sockets. As technology and regulations became more complex, the focus shifted toward energy efficiency, intelligent control, and normative requirements. Electro Terminal operates precisely within this field: from early plug and screw terminals in the 1970s/80s to LED products in the 2000s and today’s networked, smart components.
What really makes connections sustainable?
– Material and manufacturing quality: Connection components must be safe, durable and manufactured with minimal resource consumption. At Electro Terminal, we use halogen-free materials as well as optimized manufacturing processes that keep our production efficient.
– Standards & safety: Safety, environmental and energy efficiency requirements (e.g., Low Voltage Directive, EN & IEC standards, RoHS Directive, REACH Regulation) have become central in building installations. As a manufacturer, we place utmost importance on ensuring that our products are CE-compliant and always meet the latest standards. We also consider future requirements, such as data collection for the planned digital product passport.
– Intelligent systems & connectivity: Modern buildings think for themselves. For smooth load management, sensing, and IoT functions, you need connection components that are mechanically robust and digitally connectable. Our SLK 8 provides the ideal foundation: a modular terminal block with an integrated Bluetooth module for smart lighting control. It features easy handling, secure contacting, and high flexibility – ideal for modern, DALI-networked lighting systems: reliable, future-proof, and communication-strong.
– Retrofitting and existing buildings: Modernizing older buildings has become increasingly important. Manufacturers that offer simple, retrofit-friendly solutions have a clear advantage. Electro Terminal provides universal terminal blocks and modular components that are ideal for retrofit projects.
