In the fast-paced commercial and industrial sectors of Kuala Lumpur and Selangor, the speed and weight of mechanical installations are critical to project timelines. Fabric Ducting Installation (Air Sox) offers a streamlined, lightweight alternative to traditional galvanized steel (G.I.). Unlike metal ducting, which requires heavy-duty hangers and on-site welding or sealing, textile systems utilize modular zippered sections suspended from simple cable or rail systems.
EKG M&E Sdn Bhd specializes in the precision installation of these systems, ensuring they meet MS 1525 energy standards and BOMBA fire safety requirements.
Installing a textile air distribution system is an engineering process focused on tension, alignment, and airtightness.
Before the fabric is even unpacked, we install the primary support system.
Cable Suspension: For standard circular ducts, we utilize high-tensile galvanized or stainless steel aircraft cables. This is the most cost-effective and "invisible" mounting method.
Rail Suspension (Single/Double): For premium aesthetic finishes or "D-shaped" profiles, we install aluminum tracks. This ensures the duct remains perfectly straight and eliminates any "sagging" when the system is turned off.
Fabric ducts are manufactured in modular segments (typically 5 to 10 meters long).
Zipper Integration: Each segment is joined using industrial-strength, corrosion-resistant zippers. This creates a Class C Airtight seal while allowing for easy removal during future maintenance or laundering.
Internal Hoops: To prevent the duct from "deflating" or looking limp when the fans are off, we install internal stay-round hoops that maintain the aesthetic profile at all times.
As a specialized M&E contractor, EKG ensures the installation process maximizes your building's performance:
90% Weight Reduction:
Textile ducts weigh significantly less than insulated metal. This reduces the structural load on your roof trusses or ceiling slabs, making it the ideal choice for retrofitting older buildings in KL where structural capacity is limited.
Ultra-Fast Turnaround:
Because there is no heavy metal fabrication, painting, or external insulation required on-site, a fabric system can be installed up to 3 times faster than traditional ductwork. This minimizes business downtime for retail outlets, gyms, and offices.
EECA 2024 & VFD Optimization:
Under the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Act (EECA) 2024, efficient air transport is mandatory. We calibrate the installation to ensure zero air leakage, allowing your Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) to run fans at lower speeds, directly reducing your monthly TNB electricity bill.
| Feature | Standard Metal Installation | EKG Fabric Installation |
| Material Handling | Heavy / Requires Lifting Gear | Lightweight / Manual Handling |
| On-Site Fabrication | Cutting, Sealing, Painting | None (Factory-Finished) |
| Speed of Install | Slow (Weeks) | Fast (Days) |
| Structural Load | High (Heavy Hangers) | Minimal (Slim Cables/Rails) |
| Noise & Disturbance | High (Drilling/Grinding) | Low (Quiet Assembly) |
| Maintenance Access | Permanent (Access Panels) | Modular (Zipper Access) |
Total 3D BIM Coordination: We model the entire cable and duct layout in 3D to ensure zero "clashes" with sprinklers, lighting tracks, or cable trays, ensuring a perfectly symmetrical and functional result.
Turnkey Safety Compliance: We ensure all materials are BOMBA-compliant, utilizing fire-retardant technical textiles that are self-extinguishing and meet international safety standards (Class 0 / B1).
Strategic Regional Support: Based in Kuala Lumpur, we provide professional installation teams for supermarkets, showrooms, high-end offices, and industrial food plants across Malaysia.
