Responsible sourcing: building a resilient cable value chain
In an era of increasing global electrification and sustainability demands, responsible sourcing has become a cornerstone of Nexans’ commitment to ethical, environmental, and social responsibility. As a global leader in cable manufacturing, Nexans recognizes that the journey toward a sustainable future begins with the materials and practices embedded in its supply chain.
What is responsible sourcing ?
Responsible sourcing refers to the integration of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles into procurement practices. It ensures that raw materials, such as copper, aluminum, and other critical resources, are sourced in ways that respect human rights, promote environmental stewardship, and uphold ethical business practices. Nexans’ approach is guided by international frameworks such as the OECD Due Diligence Guidance and the United Nations Global Compact.
Nexans leads the way and organize a webinar dedicated to the topic and entitled Responsible sourcing: building a resilient cable value chain.

Nexans Climate Day has evolved into the Nexans Innovation Summit.
The energy decisions we make today will make ripple effects through time, affecting generations to come. We are at a crossroads – how do we both increase the capacity on the grid while simultaneously caring for and stewarding the environment?
Nexans and Ocean Calling are presenting an innovative conference focused on anthropogenic ocean pollution, in partnership with IFREMER, the University of Bordeaux (CNRS), and the Institut de recherche et de développement (IRD).
A team of scientists will unveil the results of microplastic pollution measurements in the Atlantic Ocean, collected by Fabrice Amedeo, skipper of the Vendée Globe.
Don’t miss this unique opportunity to deepen your understanding of this critical environmental issue and contribute to the protection of our oceans.

From chemistry to oceanography, including ecotoxicology, and with firsthand accounts from skipper Fabrice Amedeo, explore the multifaceted nature of microplastic research through expert presentations by:
To go even forward, since 2020, the Group has been organizing the Climate Day. This event brings together outstanding experts and actors in the field with the aim of raising awareness on climate challenges, sharing experiences and providing concrete solutions for sustainable electrification.
After opting for Paris, Stockholm and New York, Nexans has chosen to organize its fourth Climate Day in Rabat, Morocco, under the theme “Sustainable electrification for energy transition: A real opportunity for Africa”.
