Italian Manufacturer SICCET Opens U.S. Plant for Temperature Sensor Cables
In February 2026, Italian cable manufacturer SICCET announced plans to establish its first U.S. manufacturing facility in Grove City, Ohio, to produce specialized temperature sensor cables. This marks a strategic shift for the company's North American operations, which previously focused primarily on importing and distributing specialty cables from Europe.
The new facility will concentrate on insulated and jacketed cable constructions that serve as the signal-carrying core of temperature probes and monitoring harnesses. These products rely on precise conductor alloys and advanced insulation systems, as even small temperature variations can significantly affect efficiency, safety, and product quality in industrial and high-performance applications.
By locating in Ohio, SICCET positions itself near tier-one and tier-two suppliers across the Midwest, enabling better support for aerospace, automotive, and advanced manufacturing customers. The move also provides domestic supply capacity in a niche but critical market segment that has historically depended on European sources. As the operation ramps up, the company expects to expand collaboration with U.S. customers on high-temperature cable designs supporting electrification and advanced process control technologies
