Carbon Reduction Targets
Essex Furukawa is setting carbon reduction targets to provide our employees as well as partners with a clearly-defined path to reduce Greenhouse Gas emissions as an organization. We believe that communicating our carbon reduction targets and progress will catalyze additional action up and down the value chain.
Sustainable Aviation Fuel Partnership
Superior Essex—the parent brand of Essex Furukawa Magnet Wire—announced a partnership with Delta Air Lines to purchase Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). The partnership is aimed to reduce emissions from Superior Essex and its subsidiary brands’ air travel over the next year on Delta operated flights.
The CTC/PW Short Reel Initiative
Essex Furukawa is working to reduce carbon emissions by introducing another environmentally focused program: The CTC/PW Short Reel Initiative.
The initiative is specific to Continuously Transposed Cable/Conductor (CTC) as well as Paper Wrapped Conductor (PW), two products that are often ordered at specific lengths. Those custom length projects can lead to inefficient packaging, which can result in an increase of waste or requiring either lightly loaded trucks and/or multiple shipments.
