LS Eco Energy has entered the supply chain of Hyundai Rotem, marking its first foray into the railway special cable business.
On June 11, LS Eco Energy announced that its Vietnamese subsidiary, LSCV, has supplied railway communication cables to Hyundai Rotem for the first time. These cables will be used in hydrogen tram vehicles for the Daejeon and Ulsan urban rail systems.
Railway communication cables are essential components that connect control devices and communication systems within trains, transmitting operational data in real time. Given their critical role in railway safety, these cables must meet high standards for quality and durability. In a market characterized by verified supply chains, securing supply performance is seen as a significant competitive advantage.
With this supply, LS Eco Energy aims to establish a reference in the railway special cable sector and expand its opportunities to participate in Hyundai Rotem's domestic and international railway projects.
The company is also accelerating its transition to a business structure focused on high-value products. This supply is part of a strategy to increase the share of special cables for railway and industrial infrastructure.
Particularly, as the Vietnamese government pushes forward with large-scale railway infrastructure projects, including the North-South High-Speed Railway and urban rail systems, LS Eco Energy plans to capitalize on local production facilities like LSCV to capture related demand. The company is committed to strengthening its presence in the Southeast Asian railway market from its base in Vietnam.
An LS Eco Energy representative stated, "Entering the Hyundai Rotem supply chain and achieving our first success in the railway special cable market is significant. We will expand our efforts in the global railway infrastructure market in conjunction with overseas projects in K-Rail."
