Cables Industry Report by Regional Category Spend, Price Analysis, Key Demand, and Price Indicators, and Best Buying Practices


The global Cable market reached a value of about USD 158.6 billion in 2021. The industry is projected to grow at a CAGR of around 2.3% in the forecast period of 2022-2027 to reach a value of about USD 181.8 billion by 2027.

The global Cables industry report gives a comprehensive analysis of the industry, including key segments, trends, drivers, restraints, the competitive landscape, and other essential market aspects. The growing electricity demand from emerging countries is driving the market's growth. The Asia Pacific is the highest category spender by region, driving the need for the Cable industry.

Industry Definition and Segmentation

A cable is an electrical cord that consists of one or more electrical conductors held together by a sheath, and power is transmitted through the assembly. Lines commonly transport electric energy (AC/DC); nevertheless, electromagnetic waveguides send electromagnetic waves in telecommunications areas. The Cables industry report comprises segments by application (Aerospace & Defense, Building & Construction, Oil & Gas, Energy & Power, and IT & Telecommunication) and region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, and Africa, and South America).

The Asia Pacific Region is Driving the Growth of the Industry

The Asia Pacific holds the largest share in the industry due to key power cable producers in the region. Furthermore, due to population expansion and urbanisation in nations like China, India, Japan, and South Korea, electrical consumption has increased, accompanied by increased investment in network and building infrastructure, resulting in the market's expansion.

The market is being driven by the growing need for electricity in emerging and industrialised nations such as China, India, Germany, the United States, and the United Kingdom and the demand for LV cables. Furthermore, HVDC cables in electrical transmission, LV cables for buildings and cars, and the active fibre optic cable market in telecommunications are all extensive development areas. In addition, the growing usage of smartphones and the global internet penetration are propelling the industry. Moreover, to meet the increasing demand for these products from the construction industry, cable manufacturers are expanding their fire-resistant cable production facilities, further boosting the market's development. Also, smart grid technology reserves are rising, the renewable energy output is increasing, and government measures to upgrade transmission and distribution networks are contributing to the market's growth.

Despite this, the high operating and maintenance costs of telecom cables will likely hamper the market growth.

Best Procurement Practices

The global Cables industry report by Procurement Resource gives an in-depth analysis of the best buying practices followed by major international Cables regions across the globe, such as engagement models, contract terms, and buyer and supplier negotiation levers.

Category Management Studies

Two or more insulated wires are wrapped in one jacket to form a cable. Within a single insulating layer, there are always numerous conductors stranded together. Copper wire is made using an extrusion machine, which forces metal through a succession of extrusion dies to form a specific shape. The ingots (large bricks of pure copper) are stranded together. The cable is then delivered to the cutting machine after being coated. The connectors are scheduled to be connected as one of the last steps in building a thread. To solder the connections, an engineer working on the line will take down the outer jacket to reveal the copper. Injection moulding is used to apply an over mould to the connection in the final phase. This method is completed using an injection moulding machine.

Developments in the Sector, Further Bolstering the Procurement of Cables

The industry is being aided by the increased demand from the ICT sector, particularly in China, India, and Malaysia, and the strong market for intelligent systems and IoT. The growing popularity of IoT and similar gadgets have raised the global need for communications connections among the general public. Furthermore, electricity companies are beginning to implement fibre-optic communication systems. Most power utilities already have fibre-optic communication systems to monitor their power grid systems. By improving the communication between smart devices and electricity providers, utilities using fibre-optic networks create a stable, smart grid. As a result, some utilities are investigating fibre's potential. Additionally, the trend of renewable energy generation grows, leading to Encouragement from various governments and financial incentives, which has resulted in a significant increase in the use of renewable and alternative energy sources, thus resulting in the market's development.

The regional markets for the industry can be divided into North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and the Asia Pacific.
