Sevkabel and Dow Electrical & Telecommunications participate in global cable industry forum in Moscow

Tuesday, Mar 26, 2013

Sevkabel group of companies and Dow Electrical & Telecommunications (Dow E&T), a business unit of The Dow Chemical Company ("Dow"), met during Cabex 2013, one of the largest cable conference and exhibitions in Russia, to discuss perspectives for advancing joint efforts that will combine quality DOW ENDURANCE™ materials with the cable manufacturing know-how from Sevkabel for the installation of highly reliable and long lasting electrical transmission and distribution systems.

Discussions during Cabex included requirements for DOW ENDURANCE™ materials that will be used for the production of medium and high voltage power cables manufactured by Sevkabel to be used in venues in Sochi.  The cables will be installed underground to manage long-term reliability issues, some of which are associated with the extreme weather and terrain conditions in the Sochi and Krasnodar regions.

Sevkabel, a leading cable manufacturer in the Russian Federation, became one of the first Dow Inside licensees in 2011. With product and technical support from Dow E&T, Sevkabel has already completed several other important projects including installations for FSK (Federal Grid) in the mountain resort of Krasnaya Polyana and the ski resort complexes in Rosa-Hutor and Imeretinskaya Valley.

Sevkabel's manufacturing expertise, combined with Dow E&T's technology leadership and commitment to innovation, can enable delivery of the long-life, reliable cables that power industry demands.
