EDITED BY : HEENA IQBAL 2MINS READ

The Bogolsovsk Cable Factory (BCF), a Joint Venture between RUSAL and the ELKA-Cable Company, has started production of cabling and wiring products with an aluminium alloy core. The factory will produce three types of wire and cable, including oil submersible cables, self-supporting insulated wires and flexible wires for use in industrial facilities.

“Commissioning of the factory's second workshop and the launch of the main machinery enabled BCF to move from the production of semi-finished aluminium products to the production of cabling and wiring products with an aluminium alloy core. These products have the competitive advantage in Russia as currently there are no analogues being produced in the country,” RUSAL said through its press release.

The aluminium alloy processing capacity of the production facility is 4,400 tonnes, which will be supplied by RUSAL. BCF plans to reach maximum output within three years, RUSAL said.

The plant will continue to manufacture aluminium wires, strands and conductors necessary to produce other types of cabling products.

Alexey Arnautov, RUSAL's Head of New Projects Directorate, said: “At its full production cycle, the facility will contribute to the region's industrial potential. The advantage that BCF cabling and wiring products have is that there are currently no analogues on the domestic market, and there is already demand from the Russian power grid, oil and oil-field service companies.”

In 2016, RUSAL and the ELKA-Cable Group signed an agreement for the production of cabling products and conductors. The financing of the project is equal between the two partners. The total investment amounts to RUB 765 mln.
