A bus duct is a power distribution system that reliably supplies electricity to large-scale buildings and plants. As buildings become larger and require more power, demand for bus ducts is increasing worldwide. According to industry sources, the global bus duct market size is expected to grow from 14 trillion won in 2022 to approximately 23 trillion won by 2028.

First, DaeHan Electric Wire will expand the size of its dedicated bus duct factory, located at its Dangjin cable plant in Chungcheongnam-do, to about three times its previous capacity. The company has also strengthened its production capabilities by introducing new core equipment. The expansion and equipment installation, which began in November last year, was completed this month, and full-scale mass production began on May 20.

The company has also improved production efficiency and product competitiveness. It expanded the line for its existing polyethylene terephthalate insulation equipment, while newly introducing epoxy insulation equipment with high heat resistance and high insulation properties, thereby diversifying its product portfolio.

Bus ducts insulated with epoxy deliver stable performance even in high-voltage and high-temperature environments. They are suitable for large-scale buildings where stable power supply is essential, such as data centers, smart buildings, and semiconductor factories. Through this equipment investment, DaeHan Electric Wire plans to accelerate its entry into the large-capacity power distribution market, where demand is expected to grow.

A representative from DaeHan Electric Wire stated, "Bus ducts have significant growth potential in the global market, and future demand is expected to increase. We are committed to continuously strengthening our competitiveness by focusing on technology and product development." The representative added, "Since we have been stably supplying bus ducts developed with our own technology to domestic and overseas markets for several years, we will use this investment as an opportunity to secure a variety of new business opportunities."
