Data centre and infrastructure
Rooms built for loads that look nothing like those of five years ago, where the ceiling is available power rather than floor space.

Density
The room that worked five years ago no longer does
This is not a catalogue refresh. It is a change of magnitude that breaks design assumptions two decades old.
The enterprise data centre was sized around a rack of roughly 10 kW, cooled by room air, with open aisles and enough thermal slack to forgive design mistakes. The raised floor, the switchboard, the chilled water plant and the backup calculation were all built on that assumption.
A training or inference workload asks for 100 kW to 1 MW in the same enclosure. At that density room air stops being enough, the rack feed changes format, the return has to be contained, and at the top of the range the heat leaves through water rather than air. Same building, different physics inside it.
That jump explains why most of the projects that reach us are not projects yet: they are bills of materials with no defined power per enclosure. The first part of the work is turning one into the other.

Containment and thermal design
Why a closed aisle stops being optional
With open aisles, some of the cold air mixes with the return before it reaches the server. At 10 kW per rack that is tolerable: there is thermal slack to spare. At 100 kW the mixing consumes the installed capacity and forces the supply temperature down across the whole room to compensate, which is the most expensive way to solve it.
Containment closes the loop: a sealed cold or hot aisle, blanking panels in every free rack unit, and sealing of floor openings and cable cutouts. These are low-cost parts whose absence explains a striking share of rooms that never reach the density their design states.
The control point that matters to us is the temperature delta measured on site between supply and return, not the one on the datasheet. If that number does not match the design, containment is open somewhere, and it is worth finding before adding equipment.
The cooling steps follow from that. Precision air holds the traditional range. An active rear door covers the middle without touching the room architecture. Direct-to-chip liquid resolves the top of the range and changes everything else: the enclosure type, the hydraulic route, the maintenance regime and the profile of whoever operates the room.
Power
The bottleneck is electrical, not equipment
Colombia has roughly 50 MW of installed IT load, with a forecast of around 80 MW by the end of 2026. Brazil sits near 950 MW and Chile at 341.6 MW. The gap is not explained by product availability. It is explained by generation and transmission, by a regulatory vacuum specific to this asset class, and by a shortage of people with operating experience.
At the same time, building in Bogotá costs less than in any other measured city in the region: USD 7.49 per installed watt, against 10.75 in São Paulo and 8.61 in Santiago. Both facts hold at once. The cheapest watt to build sits in the market with the least installed capacity, and that combination is what signals where new capacity gets built.
So a project here is won or lost in the power conversation rather than the equipment one. The first question is not which enclosure, but how much power is available at the service entrance and how much can be there in two years.
| Market | Installed IT load | Cost per watt |
|---|---|---|
| Colombia | ~50 MW | Bogotá · USD 7.49 |
| Chile | ~341.6 MW | Santiago · USD 8.61 |
| Brazil | ~950 MW | São Paulo · USD 10.75 |
Portfolio
What we specify and integrate
Racks, enclosures and containment
High-density enclosures with load and cable management, hot or cold aisle containment, roofs and end doors, blanking panels and floor-opening sealing. Containment is not an accessory: without it, installed capacity is lost before it reaches the server.
Power, backup and distribution
In-rack power distribution with per-circuit metering, backup units, switchboards, transfer and per-enclosure consumption monitoring. At high density, metering stops being a reporting nicety and becomes the instrument that keeps you from tripping an entire row.
Cooling
Precision air for the traditional range, active rear doors for the middle, and direct-to-chip liquid at the top. Each step changes the rest of the design, and the step is chosen by target power rather than by preference.
Monitoring, DCIM and instrumentation
Per-enclosure temperature and humidity sensing, power metering, rack-level access control and a management platform. It earns its place twice: knowing how much capacity is genuinely free, and being able to show an auditor what happened and when.
Room connectivity
Structured cabling, fibre, optical distribution frames and access switching inside the data centre. In dense rooms cable volume competes with air, so routing is part of the thermal design rather than a finishing task.
Micro data centre and edge
Self-contained enclosures with power, cooling, monitoring and physical security built in, for remote sites, plants and offices with no technical room. It is the answer when compute has to sit where the process is and there is no room to put it in.
How we work
How we enter a data centre project
We come in early or we come in badly. Once the tender is written, all that is left is competing on price against a specification that may be wrong.
- Electrical and thermal survey Power available at the service entrance, backup capacity, supply temperature and return path. It decides whether the project fits the building that already exists or needs construction.
- Sizing per enclosure Target power per rack, expected growth, and the cooling step that goes with it. The enclosure and containment type follow from that, not the other way round.
- Specification and alternatives A technical document setting out what the project needs and which options meet it, including options we do not sell. A specification written around a single part number is obvious, and in public procurement it gets challenged.
- Commissioning Installation, containment verification, metering checks and documented handover. The control point is the temperature delta measured on site, not the one on the datasheet.
- Support and second line Local-hours support with access to the manufacturer when a case needs it. This is the part that decides whether there is a second purchase.
Before we price
The three questions
Before quoting an enclosure we ask how much power that rack will really carry, what the temperature delta is between cold aisle and return, and where the hot air goes. A project that cannot answer those three is not a project yet.
There is also a regime decision that is taken early or not at all, and that changes the financial model of an equipment investment. It is set out on the manufacturers page, along with the rest of the Colombian regulatory ground.
