PVC Cables: Driving Growth Across Key Industries Through Innovation and Sustainability Prof. Dr Maurizio Bragagni, Esq. OBE, MBA, CDir FIoD Bragagni, CEO of Tratos Group, confirmed at our recent conference that PVC can play a leading role in present and future markets, and in rapidly developing sectors. According to estimates, PVC compounds for cables are expected to grow at an annual rate of 5.2% until 2030 at a global level. This thanks to the smart upgrading of the power transmission and distribution systems, but also to the strengthening of smart grids. Driving sectors will be construction, automotive, renewable energy and telecommunications. This of course provided that the #PVC cable industry is able to respond to the new global trends by continuing to focus on #innovation and #sustainability. https://lnkd.in/d7neQa2D #pvccables

Low Smoke Acidity PVC Compounds for Electrical Cables: Flammability and Smoke Production Versus Halogen-Free Options At the recent 4th PVC4Cables Conference in Prague, Laura Mazzocchetti of Università di Bologna underlined how in reality, and contrary to common perception, acidity is a secondary parameter in #firesafety. Carbon monoxide (CO) emerges as the leading threat in the effluents produced during a fire. Studies also reveal that the smoke production from #PVCcables can be significantly mitigated, almost aligning with #halogenfree #cables, through the strategic use of appropriate flame retardants and smoke suppressants. https://lnkd.in/d7neQa2D

Innovative Alternatives to MCCPs in #PVCCables: A Breakthrough in Fire Safety and Sustainability🧯🍀 At the recent PVC4Cables Conference in Prague, Prof. Cardelli Camillo, Senior Researcher, Scientific Coordinator and Co-Founder of iPOOL srl presented new findings on alternatives to Medium-Chain Chlorinated Paraffins (MCCPs): “Our research shows that increasing the chlorine content in #PVC cable formulations, by using #biobased chlorinated esters instead of traditional chlorinated paraffins, significantly improves flame retardancy and cable performance into EN 50399 (CPR) burning test, while also improving environmental performance – a potentially groundbreaking discovery in #firesafety and #sustainability.” https://lnkd.in/d7neQa2D #cables

PVC: The Polymer of Choice for Cables in Czech Republic and Slovakia🔌 We were pleased to have Miroslav Trojan welcome delegates at our recent conference in Prague. As President of the Association of Cable and Wire Manufacturers in the Czech Republic and Slovakia (AVK), he highlighted the continued dominance of #PVC for #cables in the region, where PVC holds a strong 65% market share💪 Learn more about how #PVCcables are powering the future through #innovation: https://lnkd.in/d7neQa2D

PVC Cables in Europe's Strategic Autonomy Reflecting on Charlotte Röber's opening at the 4th PVC4Cables Conference in Prague 🇨🇿: “Cables power our digital life, which means that we need to work with regulators to address regulatory challenges and seize opportunities that can help #cables contribute to Europe's strategic autonomy.” Discover key insights from the conference: https://lnkd.in/d7neQa2D

PVC Cables: Powering the Future Through Innovation With the theme "Market Development Through #Innovation," the 4th PVC4Cables Conference took place in Prague, Czech Republic, on Wednesday 16 October 2024. Organised by PVC4Cables, the 4th event dedicated to the #PVC #cables sector brought together around 150 representatives of industry, authorities, institutions and research institutes from 26 European and non-European countries. “Since the set-up of PVC4Cables and our first conference in 2017, we have been showing that the PVC cables industry is a fast-developing sector and it is continuing to innovate," said Magdalena Garczynska, Project Leader of PVC4Cables. "With over 30 studies published in the technical-scientific literature or presented at international events, we have demonstrated that it is possible to obtain increasingly high-performance formulations for PVC cables in technical and safety terms, but also in terms of environmental #sustainability. Ensuring the recyclability of #PVCcables, for example, is one of the key aspects of our activities." https://lnkd.in/d7neQa2D

Very clear message from Eric Romers from INEOS Inovyn in Prague: Scalable technologies exist to extract legacy additives from old #PVC #cables prior to #recycling👩🔬 https://lnkd.in/dUcg3zWD
