Maximize the Potential of Your Indoor Space
The perfect indoor environment in any commercial building should address a variety of needs.
These needs include maintaining high-quality clean air, improving personal comfort control,
responding to organizational and technological changes quickly and easily, and supporting the
overall aesthetic value of the building – all while being cost-effective in both construction and
operation. With Tate’s access floors and underfloor service distribution system, you have the
ability to address all of the factors required to create the perfect agile indoor environment that
will reflect the goals and image of your organization.
You can take advantage of these benefits:
– Enhanced indoor environmental quality through superior IAQ, improved acoustics,
and increased daylighting opportunities
– Maximum occupant comfort control at design inception and throughout the life of
the building using underfloor air with modular ‘plug & play’ VAV or passive diffusers
– Energy efficiency through economizer operation, and less fan energy
– Easily adapts to technological and organizational changes over the building’s
life-cycle at low cost
– Point-of-use services wherever you need them with complete flexibility, accessibility,
and unlimited capacity
– Accelerated tax depreciation opportunities
– Reduced first cost and construction time due to significant reduction in HVAC
ductwork and use of underfloor pre-fabricated ‘plug & play’ wire / cable services
– Reduced operating costs and lower facility and maintenance costs through
accessible, flexible and adaptable services

Board Panels
Composite board panels are comprised of a strong composite
board laminated to a E-coated steel bottom sheet. This panel
provides a smooth surface that is intended for the lamination
of resilient finishes such as linoleum, vinyl, rubber and LVT in
commercial applications. A color coordinated edge banding is
applied to the tapered edge of the panel for easy accessibility
to underfloor components, all while creating a near seamless
appearance.

Flexible Partition
Tate Field Flexible Partitions are an exciting alternative to
traditional soft partitions making them ideal for use in any
containment application. The system features 5 aluminum
extrusion profiles and that are used with multiwall polycarbonate
to create custom hard partition in the field. The unique extrusion
design holds the multi-wall panel in place without the need for
screws or other fasteners. The partitions can attach to a drop
ceiling over head or be mounted to the top of the cabinets using
angle brackets. Capital F-Channel

Structural Ceiling
An Innovative Approach to
Structural Support Systems
Structural ceilings are the ideal solution for any data center
application where large heavy items need to be suspended
within a building. Replacing custom-built on-site structural
systems, such as Unistrut, with a Tate structural ceiling allows
you to design and specify a support solution that is less
expensive and faster to install.
