On 19th April, 2001, International Copper Promotion Council (India) was formed to be actively associated with the growing number of copper users in India. ICPCI's principal objective is "to promote the beneficial usage of copper for safety, health, environment and energy savings." ICPCI's activities focus on helping end-users to exploit the positive attributes of copper better.


It has initiated specific projects. This is done by implementing programs and initiating and funding projects in copper technology, research and market development. It promotes safe housewiring practices and use of copper for plumbing and gas piping systems, in the building construction sector. It propagate the use of Energy Efficient Motors for energy savings, in Industries. It promote the use of high efficiency motors and pumps in the Agricultural sector. It tries to reduce distribution losses in the Power sector through the use of High Efficiency Distribution Transformers. ICPCI actively promotes Copper through seminars, workshops and training programmes all over India, in collaboration with other organizations, institutions and trade bodies.

ICPCI publishes technical handbooks and training manuals and produces information booklets and brochures aimed at spreading general awareness of the benefits of Copper. ICPCI has most of the international and Indian copper producers as the members. ICPCI's projects and activities receive full support from the major Indian copper producers, fabricators, cable manufacturers and EE motor manufacturers. The International Copper Association, Ltd. (ICA) is the main leading organisation for promoting the use of Copper worldwide.

ICA's mission is to increase awareness and usage of Copper by communicating the unique attributes that make this sustainable element an essential contributor to the formation of life, to advances in science and technology, and to a higher standard of living throughout the world. The Association's 35 member companies represent about 80 percent of the world's refined Copper output and are among the largest Copper producers, Copper alloy fabricators, and wire and cable companies in the world. ICA is responsible for guiding policy and strategy, and funding international initiatives and promotional activities. Headquartered in New York, ICA's programmes and initiatives are executed in 24 countries through 4 regional offices and 27 Copper promotion centers.
