Cabur Solar CON Y RG The Company CTING ENE NE SIN C E 19 52 UNI EN-ISO 9001 Founded in 1952, Cabur quickly gained a leading position among national constructors of terminal blocks for electrical panels, pursuing a policy which focused particularly on installers' needs and proposing avant-garde technological solutions, which in time became generalised applications. Above all, it was ahead of its time in the qualitative choices for its products, especially regarding raw materials, as well as guaranteed functioning, reliability over time and respect for the environment. Thanks to all this, in 1985 Cabur obtained Class 1E Qualification (Equipment for Nuclear Power Generating Stations) and ISO 9001 (Quality) and ISO 14001 (Environment) Certifications, as well as certified conformity to the ATEX Directive and to the IEC Ex Scheme for “Ex e” installations on main terminal block lines. In 2006 Cabur acquired a new advanced production site, which stretches over an area of 15,000 m2 in the municipality of Altare (Savona). The extra surface space and a simultaneous increase in personnel allowed for rationalising and rendering even more efficient the production processes, as well as the logistics and sales activities. Present production, which is wide-ranging and diversified, represents the optimal synthesis of Cabur's long experience as a supplier to the main national energy boards and companies, together with activities and collaboration abroad. Today Cabur develops and produces, to its own designs, UNI EN-ISO 14001 a very wide range of products for the electro-technical and electronics industries, renowned for their reliability even in extreme working conditions, and created to provide optimal responses to users' various and complex installation needs. The offer includes: a line of terminal blocks for electrical cabinets and panels, designed to satisfy the fundamental requirements of the most severe installation conditions. ■■ power supplies and electronic products for electrical panels, for plant automation, machine automation, and process control. ■■ a wide range of items for the completion of connections for civil and industrial installations. ■■ a line of products for the connection and protection of photovoltaic systems. ■■ a line of products and solutions for industrial marking. ■■ For documentation on our products, visit our site www.cabur.eu; you can request all our publications and also receive invitations to trade fairs where Cabur is present, and a periodic e-mail newsletter.
