The opportunities offered during 2024 were including access to a broader product portfolio of green cables and eco-friendly solutions, together with enhanced service offerings, from monitoring to tracking systems, covering the new needs of the diverse industries.

This was made possible through accessing to 27 Prysmian cutting-edge research centers worldwide, accelerating the development of innovative products and integrated solutions, but also through leveraging global testing facilities, ensuring the highest international quality standards, advanced expertise and industry best practices, preparing and qualifying the company to compete with highest European standards.

According to Oman Cables Industry, the growth recorded in 2024 was fueled by higher exports, particularly in the renewable energy sector, thanks to its unique Renewable Excellence Center, and the concrete support the Company is providing to power grid enhancement - in the Middle East and not only - boost by the ongoing energy transition.

Achieving results is our responsibility, giving back to the Omani community is our commitment. I am proud of our management and our team, the great Oman Cables family," he added.
