Kabelwerk Eupen’s began with
brothers, Carl and August Bourseaux in 1747. The company
based in Eupen, Belgium fabricated all kinds of jute
ropes and hawsers, then toward the end of the 19th
century, cables. In the 1950’s, Eupen realized the importance of plastics
and installed two new production lines: one for plastic
tube extrusion, and the other for the first production
of synthetic foam. A pilot project was set up in 1962 where two Belgium
towns had cable television transmission systems
installed using coaxial cable manufactured by Kabelwerk
Eupen.
In the 70’s and 80’s Eupen was at the forefront of an
industry-wide awareness for safety, developing safety
cables for nuclear power plants that fully complied with
the IEEE quality control standards.
The 1990’s were marked by increasingly intense research
and development, continuous refinement of manufacturing
processes and the pursuit of the highest possible
product quality. Consequently, the technology and
expertise gained in the fields of cables, pipes, and
foam were combined to complement each other, providing a
sound structural framework for Eupen’s move into the
21st century. Please
