Driven by the pursuit of greater sustainability, the global recycled aluminium industry continues to witness near-daily advancements in innovation. This momentum has now extended to the aluminium wire rod sector, with Kingdom of Bahrain-based Midal Cables, a leading manufacturer and distributor of a wide range of cables, announcing the launch of its new line of recycled aluminium rod products, branded as MiRecAL.
The newly launched MiRecAL product line is available in two key variants, incorporating 15 per cent and 30 per cent recycled aluminium content. It is estimated that these recycled aluminium wire rods can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 29 per cent compared to conventional aluminium wire rod manufacturing processes, underscoring their strong sustainability efforts for a low-carbon economy.
The wire rod, which is built using 15 per cent recycled aluminium, is designed for drawing wires and strips in both conductor and insulated cable manufacturing. This product further offers cable producers a performance-driven solution with a sustainability advantage, providing a competitive edge in meeting their environmental objectives. The company offers the product in its premium range of sustainable aluminium wire rods, in aluminium alloy grades EC1350, EC1370, Al6101 and Al6201, catering to diverse manufacturing and performance requirements.
