Utilities Solutions

NKT was first in the world with large-scale recycling of cable scrap; we also launched the world's first lead-free cable.

Both innovations were the result of our creative approach to environmental work.

Another example is our Axal TT 3.0 Endurance, perhaps the worlds' best medium voltage cable. It has aluminium as the sole metal, resulting in lower weight and easier recycling.

As early as 1960, NKT were pioneers in the industry by introducing recycling of cable scrap. We have our own plant in Denmark, where we can recycle all products to new raw materials that can be used in our own, or someone else's manufacturing of new products.

In this way, we have the opportunity to take care of the entire cable life cycle while saving money and the environment in the process.

When designing our products, we always focus on the installer’s work environment. It is a work situation that we know very well.

Laying, splicing and connecting medium-voltage cables is often heavy, dirty and demanding.

With smart design of both cables and cable accessories, we can make it easier for installers.

For almost 130 years, at NKT we have worked on developing and improving cable products and cable accessories. Our R&D teams are constantly at the forefront, with the customers' benefit in focus. We are passionate about delivering innovative, safe and easy-to-use solutions that change the perception of what is possible. Two highlights worth mentioning:

After years of research, the NKT Universal Cable System is launched, a complete solution for cost-effective and reliable electricity distribution on land, in air and in water.
