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.
