To save space when transporting the EcoBloc maxx and EcoBloc light modules, they can be stacked inside one another. This minimizes transport costs, storage space and CO2 emissions. The EcoBloc ground plate forms the base for the relevant EcoBloc system. Up to 14 EcoBloc modules can be placed on one ground plate. The sides are sealed with EcoBloc end plates. The EcoBloc system can therefore be adapted to individual requirements.
