Magnet wire — also called winding or enamelled wire — is a copper or aluminium conductor coated with a thin layer of insulating enamel rather than plastic. The enamel is what lets thousands of turns sit tightly against one another in a coil; without it a motor, transformer or generator winding would not be possible.

Akvaton manufactures it to IEC 60317 / 60851 in thermal classes from 130 to 220 °C: round Ø 0.15–2.5 mm and rectangular up to 12×4 mm.

A copper busbar is a solid bar of electrolytic copper — rectangular (also called flat bar) or round. It carries high currents inside switchgear, transformers and distribution boards, where cable would be impractical.

Akvaton supplies busbar and rod to EN 13601 / EN 13602 in Cu-ETP and Cu-OF, soft or hard temper, with up to 100% recycled copper.

Akvaton uses 100% recycled copper. For B2B clients, this means lower Scope 3 emissions, compliance with ESG requirements and stronger positions in tenders. From 2026 the EU is tightening carbon-footprint requirements for imported products — choosing Akvaton as a supplier today already covers this concern.

100% of copper and aluminium production waste is returned to recycling. Exhaust gases are cleaned with 95–99% efficiency — below EU norms. Solar panels cover 25% of the facility’s electricity needs. Surplus production heat is recovered to heat the premises. Plastic spools are returned and reused.

Yes. By choosing Akvaton products you get high-quality wire with a reduced carbon footprint — at no extra cost. It is a conscious choice in favour of the environment that costs you nothing additional.
