Nexans has announced a strategic partnership with BIMobject, one of the foremost global platforms for the construction industry. This collaboration is a milestone in the digitization of the cable sector, positioning Nexans as the first cable manufacturer with products integrated in BIM.
Through this collaboration with BIMobject, Nexans says it will be able to provide architects, engineers and professionals of the construction sector with a selected range of products in the form of detailed 3D models. Looking beyond modeling aspects, these objects include essential information such as technical specifications, installation instructions, energy use and product-related environmental data.
Nexans cables and cable systems will now be included at the early stage of construction projects, that is the design phase. This early integration will allow for the optimization of electrical installations and therefore contributing to increased safety and reliability throughout the building's lifecycle.
Christophe Demule, innovation director, building at Nexans, declares: "This partnership with BIMobject underlines our commitment to delivering innovative cabling solutions and supporting construction professionals in their daily work. We believe that this initiative will reinforce our position as leaders in the digital transformation of the cable industry.”
