Europacable is proud to announce the finalisation of its recommendations on Sustainable Procurement for Optical Fibre Cables (OFC), developed in collaboration with Steinbeis University. 

 

This study identifies key carbon footprint drivers and sets out actionable steps to reduce emissions, supporting Europe’s transition to a net-zero future by 2050.

The main findings from the study, which focused on production and distribution, are:

  • Production is responsible for 46% of total emissions, with extrusion processes being the largest contributor.
