Why cable sits here 02
The Hammond industrial base
Hammond's largest industrial employer moulds and assembles modular plastic conveyor belting in a plant that has grown past 400,000 square feet, and the surrounding corridor is food distribution and logistics. That means assembly lines, refrigeration and warehouses rather than reactors.
The cable profile is therefore drive and control heavy: VFD cable, tray cable, control cable, refrigeration instrumentation and building wire from repeated expansions. This is a market where a plant's spare store grows one project at a time.
Conveyor belting manufacturing
Intralox moulds and assembles modular plastic conveyor belting at a Hammond plant it has expanded beyond 400,000 square feet.
Food distribution
S&W Wholesale Foods has operated in Hammond since 1978 and is investing $21 million to expand its Hammond headquarters and warehouse.
Distribution corridor
Hammond is the I-12 and I-55 interchange, with U.S. 51 running north-south and Canadian National's Chicago-New Orleans main line through the city.

Questions —
Hammond wire buying questions
Do you buy VFD cable from conveyor and assembly plants?
Yes. Drive cable is read on its VFD rating, conductor size and shield, all of which are printed on the jacket.
Can food plants sell cable?
They can, with their own food-safety access rules observed. Material is reviewed outside production areas and after the plant releases it.
Is Hammond material mostly small?
Mostly medium: partial reels from expansions rather than full warehouse clearances. Several reels together make a workable lot.
What about refrigeration and freezer cable?
Cold-room and refrigeration cable is reviewed on its jacket rating and moisture exposure, and it is kept separate from general building wire.
