Contex Cables manufactures digital fibre optic cables designed for telecommunications use. The company markets this product to commercial contractors engaged in government projects. Contex Cables has been successful in its bids for two existing projects. The first one requires supplying the cabling required for a new school being constructed in the local area. The second project requires Contex Cables to supply the product to replace the cable in a local hospital. For new cabling situations Contex Cables requires 1 metre of cable per square metre while for replacement situations Contex Cables requires 1.5 metres of cable per square metre.

The company sells the cable in two types of casing — polymer and polyethylene — depending on the environmental conditions that the cable will be placed in. For new constructions the contractors will use the polymer in internal applications (30%) and polyethylene in exterior environments (70%). When an existing premises requires replacement cable they will use polymer in 25% of the area and the polyethylene in the remainder.
