About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Kimberly-Clark's Industry-Leading Decarbonization Initiatives Recognized at UK Paper Industry Gold Awards

By: 3BL Media

SOURCE: Kimberly-Clark Corporation

DESCRIPTION:

Kimberly-Clark, the parent company of leading household brands including Andrex®, Kleenex® and Huggies®, has won the Net-Zero Award at the first ever UK Paper Industry Gold Awards. Selected as the winner by a panel of judges, Kimberly-Clark demonstrated excellence and innovation through its pioneering UK net-zero strategy and overarching net-zero vision for the Europe, Middle East and Africa region.

As a global manufacturer of essential products, Kimberly-Clark’s tissue business is classified as an energy-intensive industry in many markets, which reflects the challenge of decarbonizing. However, the company has made significant progress towards more sustainable operations, establishing a net-zero strategy aligned to four key pillars, including energy conservation, manufacturing footprint optimization, alternative and renewable energy, and energy supply.

The net-zero strategy sets out an ambitious blueprint to reduce emissions. The company is targeting a carbon emissions reduction of 76% in the UK across scope 1 and 2 by March 2023 (compared to a 2015 baseline). Kimberly-Clark and its partners are investing more than £182 million in a number of initiatives that contribute to lowering the environmental impact of the company, which employs around 1,220 staff in the UK.

In 2021, Kimberly-Clark announced a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Octopus Energy that will lead to the construction of an onshore windfarm in Cumberhead, Scotland. Once complete, the windfarm will make almost 80% of Kimberly-Clark’s electrical power consumption in the UK renewable.

All of these efforts contribute to Kimberly-Clark’s global goal to cut its scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030, which is based on a 2015 base year.

“We’re very proud to win the Net-Zero Award,” said Oriol Margo, who serves as the sustainability transformation leader for Europe, the Middle East and Africa at Kimberly-Clark. “We know that we’re only at the start of this journey, but we’re pleased with the progress that we’ve made so far, and it’s rewarding to be recognized for the effort that the whole company has made.”

Margo added, “We’re committed to accelerating the decarbonization of our operations and collaborating with our supply chain partners, vendors, and the wider industry to help reach our goals. Caring for the environment and the communities where we live and work is core to delivering our purpose of Better Care for a Better World.”

The CPI awards are held annually to recognize the very best in the business across seven different categories, with other areas including recycling, health and safety, and community engagement.
