About Fixpod

Fixpod GmbH develops and distributes connection solutions for electrical installation in timber construction with a focus on a high degree of prefabrication. The product range includes the Fixpod (compensating device/balancer), the Fixcouple for routing installation pipes from prefabricated wall and ceiling elements, as well as screw-in tools for connectors, heavy-duty anchors and hanger bolts of the Stexon brand. The Fixcouple is manufactured in plastic using the injection moulding process; product development and testing take place in cooperation with manufacturing partners and accredited testing laboratories.
