ACL TECHNOLOGY

From the inception ACL has been acquiring foreign technology for the development of existing and new products. In the year 1962, ACL commenced business with technical assistance arranged through the Colombo based liaison office of Mitsui. The Japanese Technology, Machinery, & Engineers helped ACL to establish a Foundation of Quality products. Thereafter, ACL joined hands with two cable companies in India to establish the manufacture of Aluminum Conductors and Armored Cables.

One of the company’s most notable technology transfer agreements in recent times have been with NOKIA Cables of Finland for the manufacture of XLPE insulated Cables, Aerial Bundled Cables and Aluminum Alloy Conductors.

Having obtained technology from NOKIA on two occasions in the year 1989 and 1993, ACL upgraded its technology on XLPE insulated Aerial Bundled Cables to surpass National French Standard NFC 33 – 209 in the year 1998 through its own Research and Development. This I a feat not matched in the region by any other manufacturer at that time. The technology so achieved is employed in the manufacture of XLPE insulated Armoured and Unarmoured power cables. These developments offer many benefits to valued customers and in order to highlight those benefits it was decided to name all our XPLE insulated cables under the brand name Power – X.

Having obtained ISO 9002 certification in the year 1998, ACL was awarded the prestigious ISO 9001 – 2000 certificate in the Year 2002. In the same year ACL was awarded ISO 14001 : 1997 Environmental Management Systems Certification.
