With dramatic increases in global trade and travel, the world’s ship operators are continuing to find ways of lowering costs,and improving safety and performance, while respecting environmental concerns.
Cables are vital in achieving these goals bulk carriers, passenger ships, merchant ships and service vessels of all kinds.
Specifically designed for the marine environment, ship cables can improve every aspect of shipboard operations and safety.
The special needs of ships
Shipbuilders and owner/operators look to advanced cabling to achieve substantial gains.
Since nothing can replace a total loss,or risk to human lives, the overriding concern is safety and security on the high seas.
A broad range of quality products must not only be readily available, but they must also have proven fire-performance characteristics.
There is also the question of weight and reduced volume to save precious cargo and passenger space.
Cables must be able to endure the marine tough environment and also answer the increasing complexity onboard: from navigation, communications and control to providing multipurpose electricity for everything from lights to propeller systems.
Finally, they must conform to the highest international norms, such as IEC standards.
