MESC is proud of its extensive product range of specialised instrumentation, thermocouple extension and fire alarm cables. It also makes fire-resistant cables that are suitable for up to 1,200C. The company’s products cover LV power and control, co-axial, data transmission, rubber, flexible and system cables.

“Established in the year 1993, MESC has achieved in the short span of 10 years a steady growth in its operations and has earned a reputation for itself as a quality manufacturer of cables in the Middle East,” said strategy and market development manager Varouj Jamgossian. He emphasised that the plant could not only manufacture listed products, but also had the flexibility to enhance the product range/categories to meet specific demands of customers.
“Additionally, highly experienced and competent managers, engineers and technicians manning the quality and research departments are continuously working for the improvement of quality and for identifying new products in line with the development of new technologies,” Jamgossian said.
