Thread Power System by Steelcase

Thread is a modular, low-profile power and cable distribution system designed to bring reliable electrical access to workstations, classrooms, lounges, and collaborative zones — transforming floors into usable power infrastructure without disrupting traffic flow or aesthetics.

Key Features:

  • Ultra-thin power track (just 3/16″) that lays beneath carpet or flooring, making it virtually invisible and eliminating trip hazards.
  • Modular kit-of-parts approach enables quick installation or retrofit — whether for new builds or existing spaces — turning under-utilized real estate into power-ready zones.
  • Supports single- or dual-circuit configurations, offering flexibility in power delivery depending on load and layout needs — from simple lounge areas to full workbench setups.
  • Freestanding, movable power hubs provide convenient access: each hub offers multiple standard outlets and can be relocated along the track as space and usage evolve.

Ideal For:
Open-plan offices, classrooms, collaborative zones, lounges, training labs, hot-desking areas, and any workspace requiring flexible power access without fixed infrastructure constraints.

Available Options:
Thread’s system includes under-carpet power tracks in various lengths (from ~2 ft up to large grids), low-profile plug connectors or standard NEMA-style plugs, and freestanding Power Hubs (desk or lounge height) that deliver multiple outlets per hub. It supports both single- and dual-circuit setups, enabling tailored power distributions for light or high-power users depending on space needs.
