Elsewedy Cables Winding Wires Factory

In 1997, Elsewedy Cables established their first winding wires factory, which is considered one
of the largest factories in the Middle East specialized in manufacturing Enamelled and paper
flat wire as well as plain & tinned copper with the capacity of 15000 ton/year ( Egypt and
KSA), produced and quality controlled through a very sophisticated devices both online and
at the laboratory. The laboratory facility is equipped with almost all testing devices to meet
the requirements of IEC and European norms.
Our customers in Europe, Africa and Middle East are consuming almost 70% of our production
Elsewedy Cables capacity in the field of Oil and Dry Transformers, Switch Gears, Motors and Compressors.
