Bespoke solutions: custom-built distro boxes and what you can request

Every event, venue and project is different. The power setup that works perfectly in a theatre isn’t necessarily the right fit for a motorsport garage, a festival site or a hospital. That’s why off-the-shelf equipment can only take you so far. When you need a power system that fits your exact requirements, a bespoke solution is the best way to guarantee reliability, safety and efficiency.

At Rubber Box, we’ve been designing and manufacturing power distribution boxes for decades, supplying everyone from Formula 1 teams to live production companies and the NHS. While we keep a wide range of standard boxes in stock for quick delivery, we also build custom-made power distro boxes designed completely around what you need.

Why bespoke makes the difference

Every setup comes with its own challenges. Maybe you need a box that can handle outdoor conditions year-round, or one that fits neatly into a fixed installation without wasted space. You might need a specific combination of inlets and outlets, or extra protection to cope with demanding environments. Whatever the requirement, a bespoke build means you never have to compromise on performance or safety.

By tailoring your power distribution box to your system, you remove weak points and avoid unnecessary workarounds. It keeps your setup simple, safe and efficient, while ensuring every connector, breaker, and cable is exactly where it should be.

What you can request

When you come to Rubber Box for a custom-built distro, almost every detail can be shaped around your requirements. Each setup is different, and what works for a touring production may not suit a fixed installation or outdoor event. That’s why our bespoke service is completely flexible, allowing you to request specific features, layouts and protections that match how and where your box will be used.

• Socket configurations to match your power sources and outputs
• Inlet and outlet types for single- or three-phase power
• Amperage ratings from 16 A to 125 A and beyond
• Protective devices like MCBs, RCDs and RCBOs
• Box layout and labelling for easy identification and safe operation
• IP rating and enclosure material for the right level of weather resistance

All of this is built into the same solid-rubber housings that make our standard products so durable. Every bespoke box is assembled and tested to the same rigorous standards, giving you the same reliability that has made Rubber Box trusted across industries worldwide.

A collaborative process

Ordering a bespoke power distro box isn’t complicated. Our technical team works directly with you to understand how the box will be used, which equipment it will serve, and the environment in which it will operate. From there, we create a tailored design that fits seamlessly into your setup. Once approved, we build, test and deliver your unit, ready for immediate use.

Bespoke doesn’t have to mean complicated; it simply means getting it right the first time.
