In a move that underscores its sustainability leadership in the region, Oman Cables Industry (OCI) has achieved Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for its main cable families.
This milestone reinforces OCI’s role as both a regional leader in sustainable practices and a provider of comprehensive infrastructure solutions.
The EPD certifications offer a significant advantage to OCI’s customers by helping them meet rising demands for environmental transparency and carbon accountability across sectors such as construction, utilities, and infrastructure.
With these certifications in place, OCI enables stakeholders to build more responsibly, drive sustainable innovation, and stay ahead in an increasingly climate-conscious market.
The EPDs were independently verified and published by EPD Norge, developed in accordance with cable-specific Product Category Rules (PCRs).
Investing in ESG frameworks
These declarations present a rigorous, science-based account of each product’s environmental footprint, covering its entire lifecycle from raw material extraction to disposal.
As sustainability and carbon reporting become increasingly important for procurement decisions, regulatory compliance, and access to green financing, verified EPDs are proving essential.
They also support adherence to internationally recognised green building certification systems such as LEED and Estidama, as well as aligning with broader ESG investment frameworks.
OCI's EPD-backed products help customers achieve environmental standards and demonstrate climate action, whether for government infrastructure or private projects. This result enhances OCI's eligibility for worldwide and regional green tenders, and supports Oman's economic transformation under Vision 2040.
“At OCI, sustainability is not a campaign, it’s a core business principle,” said Erkan Aydogdu, CEO of Oman Cables Industry. “Securing EPD certification reflects our continued commitment to operational transparency, responsible growth, and long-term stakeholder value. We’re committed to empowering our customers and partners with the data they need to compete in tomorrow’s markets. And this is just the beginning more EPD certifications are underway.”
OCI’s verified EPDs are publicly accessible through the EPD Norge website.
“We’re not just manufacturing cables, we’re enabling the next generation of infrastructure with purpose, performance, and accountability,” Aydogdu added.
