Ampacet, a global leader in masterbatch solutions, will present its advanced ELTech™ product range at Wire 2026, highlighting innovative colour and flame-retardant solutions designed for power and telecommunication cables as well as optical fibre tubing.
At the exhibition, Ampacet will showcase its polyethylene (PE) and ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) colour masterbatch portfolio, developed for colouring low and medium voltage Copper or Aluminum power cable jackets as well as copper data cable sheaths. In addition, Ampacet will present its PBT-based colour masterbatch solutions specifically engineered for optical fibre tubing applications.
Ampacet’s ELTech™ colour solutions deliver vibrant, durable colouration aligned with the RAL colour chart and are formulated to meet the demanding performance requirements of cable manufacturing. The PBT-based ELTech™ masterbatches provide excellent opacity while maintaining signal transmission performance, even at low wall thicknesses, making them ideal for high-performance optical fibre cables.
Engineered using high-quality pigments free from heavy metals and diarylides, ELTech™ colour solutions offer exceptional heat resistance and outstanding light fastness, ensuring long-term colour stability and reliable performance throughout the product lifecycle.
Beyond colour solutions, Ampacet will also highlight its HALOLITE (low-halogen) and HALOFREE (zero-halogen) flame-retardant masterbatches, designed for ducts and cable management systems. These solutions support compliance with increasingly stringent international standards, including EN 50642 and IEC 61249-2-21, which restrict halogen and antimony content. Ampacet’s flame-retardant formulations deliver enhanced fire safety while minimising toxic emissions, achieving UL94 V-2 classification and demonstrating a high Glow Wire Flammability Index (GWFI), key performance attributes for building and construction applications.
Additionally, the ELTech™ portfolio includes masterbatch solutions that enable the use of recycled plastics in cable and pipe applications, supporting sustainability goals without compromising performance or safety.
With its comprehensive ELTech™ range, Ampacet continues to provide innovative, compliant and high-performance masterbatch solutions tailored to the evolving needs of the power, telecommunication and optical fibre industries.
