“Attention! All Cables Are Not The Same...” campaign, being the strongest
and most sophisticated initiative in Turkish Cable Industry that is intended
to raise awareness with and provide training to the users with regards to
low-performance, non-conformant products, which is one of the most
serious issues in Turkish Cable Industry, and the Prysmian Performance
Test project, intended to ensure the testing of cables for conformance to
applicable standards, performance, ease of use and cost effectiveness,
were developed and launched in 2012 as a part of a major and expansive
communication program. The activities through the course of the initiative
were also maintained during 2013. Following positive feedback from the
market and the users, the 3rd stage of “Attention! All Cables Are Not The
Same...” initiative was implemented and our examinations on products on
the market, solutions towards differentiating our products was presented
to the sector. In the year 2015, the initiative focused on solar cables and
awareness-raising activities in the industry in respect of the fact that “all
cables are not the same” were continued, and the performance characters
in relation to the selection of solar cables were shared with the users by
way of seminars and the simulators developed.
Pryman Group Turkey, which increased the volume of its investments
in technology and innovation through Mudanya R&D Center, aims at
enhancing the competitive strength of our country, delivering superior
performance products with technological innovations to the users. One
of the goals set toward such vision had been achieved in 2015 when the
status of R&D Center approved by the Ministry of Science, Industry and
Technology was obtained. In 2016, the “R&D Center Certificate” was
obtained during the certificate aware ceremony as a part of the 5th Private
Center R&D Centers Summit, held by the Ministry of Science, Industry and
Technology at the the Presidential Complex in Ankara on September 27
and 28.
Prysmian Group’s Mudanya R&D Center, covering some 5 thousand
square-meter area, is comprised of six sections. The R&D Center harbors
the Material Technologies Laboratory, Combustion Testing Laboratory,
Power Cables Testing Laboratory and the Telecommunication and Fiber
Cables Testing Laboratory as well as the Design and Innovation Office and
the Process Design and Prototype Development Office. The R&D Center
laboratories are certified for conformance to TS EN ISO/IEC 17025 “General
requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories”.
For the first time in Turkey; the infrastructure and scope of “CPR -
Construction Products Regulation” was developed for the Private
Sector Combustion Testing Laboratory, which was accredited by Turkish
Accreditation Agency (TURKAK). Eventually, the first CPR product
certificate in Turkish Cable Industry was acquired as a result of the
research and development activities. The certificate certifies conformance
of the products of Türk Prysmian Kablo ve Sistemleri A.Ş. to “EN 50575”
standard, which regulates the applications of power, control and
communication cables through the “Construction Products Regulation
(EU) No: 305/2011”, which had been brought into force in Turkey as a
consequence of long-running endeavors and had been promulgated by the
Ministry of Environment and Urban Planning.
Prysmian’s corporate officials attended to a series events held in various
cities in Turkey in order to share the latest developments on the matter
of CPR as well as their knowledge with the industry stakeholders and the
users. The officials of Prysmian informed the industry’s representatives
about CPR - Construction Products Regulation during the panels held as
well as exhibiting their novel technologies at the event organized as a part
of WIN Eurasia Automation, which was held at Istanbul Tüyap Fair and
Convention Center between March 17 and 20, 2016; during the Training
Program for Construction Product Inspectors, held by the Ministry of
Environment and Urban Planning in Antalya on April 25, 2016; and Ankara
Electrical Technologies and Building Automation Fair (EBO) held between
November 24 and 27, 2016.
In 2016, Türk Prysmian developed high-tech innovative solutions with
focus on efficiency at the R&D Center. One of the projects successfully
realized was the development of mini fiber optical cables for Yavuz Sultan
Selim Bridge project and Northern Marmara Highway project. The mini fiber
optical cables developed were delivered as a package along with the multitube
duct system, which enables the laying work to be performed rapidly
through blowing, and the related accessories. The solution delivered will
enable the rapid laying of the mini cables, produced specially for the
vacant micro tubes designed as a part of the multi-tube duct system, by
way of blowing, if needed in the future, without the requirement of any
further excavation or laying.
Türk Prysmian has contributed to the overall exportation volume of Turkey,
developing innovative, competitive and high-performance solutions
that fit the challenging geographical, environmental and operational
conditions worldwide and address the needs of the users and the industry
for power, communication and fiber optical cables.
Being Türk Prysmian R&D Center, we are committed to continue developing
innovative, state-of-the-art, user-friendly, high-performance product and
system solutions, and carrying Turkish Cable Industry forward constantly
as a part of our mission, articulated as “Linking Turkey for the Future”.
