Power cable plant construction begins in Tarboro

In late May 2011 LS Cable & System and Superior Essex Inc held a ceremony to mark the start of construction on a new power cable manufacturing facility in Tarboro, North Carolina, USA. The ground breaking ceremony was attended by over 200 local dignitaries, managers and employees. The $60 million production facility will have 24,000m 2 (250,000 ft²) of floor space and is scheduled to be completed in 2012 for the production of low and medium

voltage power cables. LS Cable & System and Superior Essex plan to offer high voltage cables and other transmission products and services in the future. Through construction of this plant, LS Cable & System aims to establish a local power cable operations base in the North American market. In addition, Superior Essex will be expanding its product portfolio beyond its current winding wire and communications cable product lines.
