The building market is dynamic, and significant growth in cable demand is expected into the future.

Being a local player will be a key enabler in reducing carbon emissions. Environmental impact and digitalization capabilities are becoming key criteria for our customers.

The electricity power distribution sector is set to invest substantial funds in enhancing both access and the dependability of the network, and Nexans is at the forefront with its distinctive solutions and initiatives to reduce waste and drive a circular economy.

As a provider of solutions, we directly take on the challenges of sustainable electrification. There is a growing demand from customers for comprehensive solutions, beyond mere products. Our markets are looking for solutions that can efficiently facilitate building projects and support reliable power distribution. We are invested in developing and providing long term value in these areas.

The focus on the government’s commitment to carbon neutrality will ensure growth in future wind farm and solar projects. Along with the expansion of data centres in ANZ, the opportunities ahead are exciting.
