On March 21st, 2014, the first assessment report of the life cycle of aluminum alloy 8000# of Chinese wire & cable industry (simply says LCA Report) was officially published in the Shanghai Cable Study institute.
The report said: the aluminum alloy 8000# cable and the copper cable with same electrical functions, for the seven characteristic indexes of cable products, except the potential value of land resource, the other six indexes (including the potential value of energy consuming, acidification, global warming, eutrophication, industry-water consuming and Chinese energy consuming) of aluminum alloy cable is better than the related indexes of copper cables. The report shows that the bad influence on the environment by the aluminum alloy 8000# cable is better than the copper during the whole life cycle. The report, analyzing the aluminum alloy cable from the view of the science technology theory and environment issue, provides the theory support for environmental improvement.
Shanghai Silin has already initially researched and developed the aluminum alloy 8000# cable, and successfully promoted the products to North American market even in 2006. It has already proved that the sustainable development of assessment report and the idea of the environmental improvement, which has followed the trend of global market. Shanghai Silin believes that, with the gradual improvement of scientific study and assessment system, our company will be sure to do more contribution in the application of promoting Chinese aluminum alloy cable. We will establish international brand with the principle of regarding the scientific innovation as motivation, social recognition as guidance, and social benefits as general mission.
