Mineral Insulated Cable is the most durable cable ever made.
Having originated from the ashes of BICC (the original Manufacturer of Mineral Insulated Cable), we apply over 85 Years’ worth of experience from the ex-Directors and Staff of BICC to offer the most cost-effective solution which works. Further to this, we are the only company in the world to manufacture using the BICC seamless tube technique ensuring infallible quality for the perfect MI Cable.
We offer the full range of Heavy Duty and Light Duty cables in:
Life safety and firefighting equipment often rely on the integrity of the essential wiring system to enable evacuation & firefighting operations. Unlike plastic FP fire cable, and “flame-retardant” cables, MI cable offer proven 3-hour escape times in “Real World” fire conditions.
If a building, tunnel, underground car park etc. has a ‘Required Safe Evacuation Time” of more than 10 minutes, there is only one suitable choice of cable: Mineral Insulated Cable.

UL Approval for our MI Cable Range. UL approval is, of course, the toughest fire cable test a cable can go through. UL 2196 UL2196 is the world’s best practice for fire testing of essential wiring systems. This test and listing require cables to be tested both horizontally in full-scale 3-meter lengths with bends and joints. […]
