Katowice Airport in Pyrzowice is one of the largest and fastest-growing airports in Poland – it handles millions of passengers annually and has an intensive infrastructure expansion program, including passenger terminals, technical areas, as well as entire logistics and service facilities. Executions on such a scale require solutions that are durable, resistant to extreme loads and ready to work 24/7, without compromise.
Why does the choice of Innotechnika solutions matter at the airport?
The airport’s apron, service roads and modern maintenance areas are places where underground infrastructure is exposed to constant heavy equipment traffic, vibrations and loads that exceed standard urban routes. There is no room for experiments or temporary installations here.
Innotechnika’s solutions – F900-class segmented teletechnical wells and underground power switchgear – were developed with such environments in mind:
- F900 mechanical strength – resistance to overloading from heavy service vehicle traffic, airport equipment and constant dynamic loading.
- Modular design and lightweight – facilitate quick installation without heavy equipment, reducing work time and project logistics costs.
- Service access and security – designed to provide safe access for technicians, minimizing the risk of failure and improving maintenance.
- Underground aesthetics – elimination of above-ground control boxes and cabinets improves organization of technical space and minimizes obstructions on the tarmac.
Such features are not a luxury – they are a pr erequisite where even short power outages or cable damage can generate real operational and safety losses.
What specifically have we delivered for airport infrastructure
At Katowice Airport, our systems have been used primarily where critical:
- Routing and protection of telecommunications cables (communications, control),
- underground power distribution,
- Inspection and service points in high-traffic areas.
The underground solutions used minimize the risk of damage, improve operational safety and maintain infrastructure integrity in key areas of the airport – at the apron, technical roads and installation nodes.
What does this mean for the investor and the end user?
There is no room for compromise here:
- Shorter installation time translates into lower costs for the entire project;
- Installation safety means less downtime and less risk of costly repairs;
- eco-friendly materials and modular solutions are in line with the long-term goals of sustainable infrastructure development.
Bottom line: where airport infrastructure can’t afford to make mistakes – our telecom wells and underground power distribution boards act as a foundation for safety and business continuity.
