Why you should choose Isolsbarra

For electricity INSIDE and OUTSIDE, discover Isolsbarra

Today we are talking about Isolsbarra, which is one of our outdoor ducts: not only indoors, but also outdoors it guarantees energy transport!

It has a particular characteristic… that of transporting electricity underwater, up to 5 meters deep (it is no coincidence that its icon is the elephant, an animal strongly connected to this element).

⚡ Its conductors are individually insulated, by PVC or GRP (thus also ensuring high resistance to short circuits).

It is COMPACT and LIGHT, allowing a very quick and easy installation.

♀️ And then: it is resistant to CORROSION, it is RECYCLABLE and REUSABLE.

What is busbar?

Busbars for energy transport are a widely requested solution in the electrical field, and this is because:

⚡ They transport all types of electric current loads, in very different environments (industrial, commercial, hospital, public, etc.)

⚡ They are safer and more efficient than traditional cables: they take up less space and reduce the risk of short circuits, fires and overloads

⚡ they do not require special maintenance and have a long life

⚡ They are installed quickly and easily

⚡ have excellent conductivity and minimize energy losses

⚡ thanks to the principle of MODULARITY, they are also suitable for systems such as Data Centers

Our wide range of busbars from 25 to 6300 A meets almost all system requirements.

Aluminium benefits vs Steel – 100% Functional

Why choose ALUMINIUM❓ BUSBAR DUCTS

Its many FUNCTIONS make it one of the most used metals ever… Analyzing the main ones in this fourth episode, today we conclude our column on the advantages deriving from aluminium in the field of busbars!

We refer to:

DURABILITY: It is extremely resistant to weather conditions and chemicals, better than many other metals.

AESTHETICS: It is a clean material and its surface can be treated with a wide range of coatings. Its design is synonymous with modernity, so much so that it is also used by brands such as Apple and Audi.

✅ NON-TOXICITY: its salts are completely non-toxic.

IT DOES NOT GENERATE SPARKS: unlike ferrous metals, aluminum does not generate sparks when rubbed with other metals; for this reason it is preferred in the flammable and explosive sectors.

♻ RECYCLABILITY: easily recyclable, with low costs (Italy is in the lead in the aluminum recycling process!)

MACHINABILITY: it can be machined and shaped more easily than metals such as steel.

MECHANICAL RESISTANCE: aluminum alloys are very solid, offering a range of mechanical strengths up to 530 Newton/mm2, bringing impact resistance up to IK10.

Aluminium Benefits vs Steel – High thermal dissipation

Why choose ALUMINIUM❓ BUSBAR DUCTS

HIGH THERMAL DISSIPATION is what we are talking about today in this third episode of our column dedicated, like every hashtag
hashtagmartedì, to the advantages deriving from aluminium!

Aluminium has a high heat dissipation capacity, and it is essential as in certain systems heat is generated that will have to be managed, or they will go into excessive temperature causing potential damage…

In our busbars, the aluminium housing has such a resistance that up to 43 ° C ambient temperature there is no derating, i.e. no reduction in the output power due to overheating.

But that’s not all. We also chose aluminium for its high THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY: in fact, it conducts heat THREE TIMES MORE than steel, ensuring the SAFETY of electronic equipment in the event of a short circuit.

Aluminium benefits vs Steel – The weight

Why choose ALUMINIUM❓ BUSBAR TRUNKING

We have always used aluminium to make our busbar systems: its QUALITIES, in fact, make it superior to other metals, including steel.

Every Tuesday we explain what are the 4 main ADVANTAGES that derive from aluminium in the field of busbars, in a cycle of 4 episodes.

Let’s see the first one today: the WEIGHT

☝ aluminium is 30% LIGHTER than steel! So: lighter parts, less effort during assembly, 25% faster installation.

✌ With our trunking, moreover, the lightness of aluminium allows us to produce standard 4-metre pieces (instead of the classic 3 metres), further reducing installation times!

Eco-friendly packaging

ECOLOGICAL PACKAGING: sustainable news from the Graziadio world.
Our growth path towards an increasingly sustainable business model continues. Here at the company, we are committed to gradually replacing certain solutions belonging to the past, dating back to the origins of the business and implemented for some time, in favor of greener alternatives.

Among the most recent, the one concerning our packaging: we have in fact replaced the traditional protective panels in POLYSTYRENE with those in CARDBOARD.

POLYSTYRENE is a plastic foam material, appreciated for its strength and lightness, but the main problem is that it does not have any type of biodegradability: if disposed of incorrectly, it is highly polluting for the environment.

HONEYCOMB CARDBOARD is a valid and effective alternative for packaging, as it offers the same advantages as polystyrene but in a more ecological key: it is also very light and, due to its “honeycomb” structure, robust, resistant and non-deformable, it cushions shocks guaranteeing protection to the product and at the same time contributing to the ecological recycling industry.

Every little change can make a difference, for a cleaner and more sustainable future.

GDA – Tri Colour!


It is well known how colours are a very powerful COMMUNICATION TOOL: they are of great importance especially in marketing, as an identifying and fundamental element for the brand.

Colours define the very identity of a brand, represent its image and convey a precise message: if well designed, we just need a glance and here is that image clearly created in our mind, which we associate with the relative brand even before reading its name.

With the painting service of our busbars, where requested by our customers, also this aspect linked not only to an aesthetic factor, but also to the communication strategy of a given brand, providing an element of distinctiveness and recognition.

Had you already identified the brand in question in the photos?

We are obviously talking about the famous European chain LIDL, to which we have supplied our GDA busbars for the distribution of electricity at a DATA CENTER in France.

The busbars in question have been painted with the typical colors of the brand, a mix that we cannot fail to immediately connect to the image of Lidl that we all know.

Open Factories 2024

OPEN FACTORIES 2024: a look behind the scenes!

Yesterday’s persistent rain did not stop our visitors, who on the occasion of #OpenFactories 2024 came through the doors of Graziadio to come and meet us and our production, giving a face to who and what is behind our work.

Under the guidance of our Quality Manager Denis Saggiorato, we have retraced the history of our company, how it all began, the goals achieved, the characteristics and curiosities of our busbars.

They got to know the “aquatic” capabilities of ISOLSBARRA, the heat resistance of K SERIES, the practicality of GLS and GDA; They had the opportunity to discover where and how the ducts are made, from the work carried out entirely by hand with meticulousness to that with machines, observing and interacting with our workers on the spot.

We thank so much the people who came to visit us, and we hope to see you again at the next event! ⚡

PE (Earthing) Why is it important?

❗ PREVENTION OF EQUIPMENT DAMAGE

Our products offer A HIGH EARTHING SYSTEM: it is significant in terms of safety and reliability of operation of electrical systems.

➡ By providing a low resistance earth path, a high PE system can protect sensitive electronic equipment from potential damage caused by electrical faults or power surges. Vital in industries where equipment is critical to operations, in addition to the expense of the equipment

➡ All of our busbars have enhanced protection due to the external casing being produced with aluminium. This metal has a low resistance to electricity and consquently any fault current is discharged through it and then in to the ground

➡ In addition, the earthing system helps to stabilise voltage levels throughout the busbar system, providing a reference point (zero volts) for the system itself which is useful for maintaining the proper functionality of electrical devices.
