Say hello to a metals brand with a forty-year pedigree

In 2020, Ducab Group, one of The Emirates’ largest and longest-established manufacturing businesses, consolidated their metals business to create a new, standalone company. Today, DMB supplies Made in UAE copper and aluminium solutions around the world, through our subsidiaries Ducab Aluminium Company, or DAC, and Ducab Copper.

DAC has a US$60 million plant in Abu Dhabi’s KIZAD, with a capacity of 50,000 tons a year. Using Southwire casting technology, we provide custom solutions for cables, wires and overhead conductors. Ducab Copper uses CONTIROD technology to produce high-quality ETP copper rods, as the basis for flexible cables and wires for the electrical industry.

Our Products

Custom solutions for aluminium rods, wires and bare overhead conductors

Our liquid aluminium is supplied at 800°c directly from Emirates Global Aluminium, the world’s largest premium aluminium producer, and environmentally friendly processes are used throughout the mill. Our EC grade aluminium rods are 99.7% pure and the production complies with the most stringent requirements of ASTMB 233-97. Our rods are used for cables, wires, and AAC, AAAC and ACSR overhead conductors.

CONTIROD technology for high quality ETP copper rods and wires

Our 8mm electrolytic touch pitch (ETP) copper rods are produced using CONTIROD technology, a continuous process involving melting, casting and rolling. The final result is a high-quality metallurgical structure, which is then coiled onto pallets and shrink wrapped to avoid any damage during shipment. Applications for our copper rods include power and communication cables in the telecommunications, automotive, power transmission and construction industries.
