The most cost efficient way to install home chargers on new build houses

Slim and shallow cable channel, installed in one hour

  • The Kerbo Charge channel can flex during fitting to remain flush with the surface of uneven or cambered pavements.

  • The channel is 32mm deep which means highways engineers only need to cut into the top tarmac layer.

    No additional foundation or footings are required - the unit is sealed in place with HAPAS approved mortar.

Patented self closing lid design

  • The Kerbo Charge lid snaps down shut behind the charging cable as it is inserted and removed.

    There are no magnets, springs or other serviceable parts.

  • The main body of the channel is made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) - a high-strength thermoplastic, and the same material used in many modern pavement utility covers.

  • Typically only 2-4 kg of CO2 to produce 1 kg, and 100% recyclable via our closed loop recycling system.

    They also confirmed it meets the requirements for water tightness and durability set for public drainage channels.

  • Wet PTV test value of 52, exceeding minimum requirement of 36.

It’s time for a smarter and more affordable approach for housebuilders.

The current approach: buried armoured cable and pedestal charger

  • Complex, expensive and inefficient.

  • Pedestal charger vulnerable to damage from cars.

  • Typically requires wider pavements.

The new approach: Kerbo Charge cross-pavement channel

  • Potential savings of over £800 per home vs pedestal solutions

  • Trusted by more Local Authorities than any other cross pavement charging solution

  • Kerbo Charge reduces street clutter without compromising traditional design.

What’s the product made from?

The main body of the channel is made from the same material used in modern pavement utility covers - calcium zinc stabilised polyvinyl chloride (uPVC) - a high-strength thermoplastic.

The advantages of rigid PVC are:

  • Significantly less CO2 is emitted during production compared to newly manufactured aluminium or steel (2 - 4 kg of CO2 to produce 1kg of PVC vs. 10 - 20 kg for aluminium).

  • It’s UV stable, has a 100 year life expectancy and is 100% recyclable. We operate a closed loop recycling system - we provide pre-paid returns bags to send us the offcuts to be 100% recycled.

  • It’s not a target for scrap metal resellers.

“We are delighted to have been selected to pilot this pioneering technology which will make owning an electric vehicle accessible to more of our residents.”
