Legrand North America, West Hartford, Conn., has announced Cablofil welded wire cable tray will become part of the wire and cable pathway solutions offered by Wiremold/Legrand and Ortronics/Legrand.

Legrand acquired ICM Group, the marketer of Cablofil welded wire cable trays, in late 2005. Wiremold/Legrand said it would discontinue production of its FieldMate welded wire tray and begin offering Cablofil welded wire tray to its network of authorized Wiremold distributors. Within the data/communications distribution channel, Cablofil welded wire tray will be managed by the Ortronics/Legrand sales organization.

“Cablofil is the most recognized, most specified brand of welded wire cable tray in the world,” said John Selldorff, president and CEO of Legrand North America. “As such, it is a significant addition to the comprehensive line of Wiremold and Ortronics solutions. It strengthens the position of Wiremold and Ortronics as the leading sources for the widest range of wire management pathways and connectivity respectively.”

Wiremold specification reps and Cablofil product specialists will support the welded wire cable tray line with architects, engineers, and design-build contractors, as well as industrial manufacturing facilities. “Their mission will be to help customers realize the labor productivity of welded wire cable tray versus conduit,” said Tim Place, president of Cablofil Inc., Mascouhah, Ill.
