Muscat: In a strategic move that sets a regional standard, Oman Cables Industry (OCI) has obtained Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for its main cable families, confirming its position as a regional sustainability leader and end-to-end infrastructure solution provider.
This achievement gives OCI's clients a substantial competitive advantage by integrating their operations with modern sustainability standards. As industries such as construction, utilities, and infrastructure face increased pressure for transparency and carbon accountability, OCI provides stakeholders with the resources to construct responsibly, innovate sustainably, and lead boldly.
The EPD certifications were independently validated and published by EPD Norge, and they follow cable-specific requirements to provide a clear, science-based assessment of a product's environmental impact throughout its life cycle, from raw materials to end-of-life.
As sustainability and carbon disclosure become central to procurement, financing, and regulatory plans, EPDs are an important facilitator for green building certification systems like LEED and Estidama, as well as ESG-focused investment and reporting.
"Sustainability is not a marketing tactic at OCI, but a fundamental business principle," stated Erkan Aydogdu, CEO of Oman Cables Industry.
"Securing EPD accreditation demonstrates our ongoing dedication to operational transparency, responsible growth, and long-term stakeholder value. We are dedicated to giving our clients and partners with the information they need to thrive in future markets. And this is only the beginning, since additional EPD certifications are in progress.
OCI's EPD-backed solutions help clients fulfill tougher environmental regulations and exhibit credible climate action in a variety of contexts, from government infrastructure to private development.
The accomplishment improves OCI's qualifying for global and regional green tenders while also supporting Oman's industrial change as part of Vision 2040.
"We're not just producing cables; we're enabling the next generation of infrastructure with purpose, performance, and accountability," Aydogdu said.
