- Exceptional fire survival properties: MICC is made from just two, non-combustible materials; copper and magnesium oxide. Both these materials can withstand extreme heat (see Question 7 below for more detail).
- Durability and longevity: With a lifespan of over 50 years, MICC cable reduces the need for replacements, lowering long-term costs and waste.
- Waterproof and rodent-proof: The copper sheath makes MICC cable waterproof and resistant to rodents.
- Non-toxic: MICC is made from just two materials, copper and magnesium oxide, neither of which release harmful gases or pollutants during a fire.
- Environmental credentials: MICC is made entirely from recyclable, non-toxic materials (copper and magnesium oxide), which makes it a more eco-friendly option than cables with plastic insulation.
