In the world of power cables, the choice of insulation material plays a critical role. It determines the cable’s long-term reliability, performance, and sustainability. While traditional materials like XLPE and EPR have long been the industry standard, a new solution is gaining momentum. Polypropylene (PP) is not only a viable alternative but also a technology that redefines what insulation can achieve.
Premix, LyondellBasell (LYB) and Maillefer have joined forces to deliver a technically advanced and recyclable power cable system.
In this blog Christine is elaborating what is Premix’s role in the power cable market and how could an independent compounder become a successful new player in such a conservative industry dominated by polymer producers and cable manufacturers?
