SCB powering into Singapore, Australia

KUCHING: Sarawak Cable Bhd (SCB), which recently acquired Universal Cable (M) Bhd and Leader Cable Industry Bhd, has zoomed in on Singapore and Australia to push for the export of its newly launched 275-kilovolt (kV) underground high-voltage power cables.

Group managing director and chief executive officer Aaron Toh Chee Ching said Universal Cable, now an SCB wholly owned subsidiary, was the only company in Asean with the capability to produce the 275kV underground high-voltage cables. Universal Cable rolled out commercial production of the high-margin 275kV underground cables after having successfully type tested the new product last August.
