Coated Wire
This network brings together raw material suppliers, compounders, extruders and OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) to address environmental challenges facing the industry. The wire and cable industry faces European, Japanese and US regulatory pressure on a number of key wire and cable materials, including: Lead, Brominated Flame Retardants, PVC, Plasticizers.
This TURI Network benefits from university research on the environmental impact of wire and cable constituents, laboratory evaluation of alternative materials, and meetings that draw firms from throughout the supply chain together to discuss human and environmental impacts, regulatory requirements, new technology developments, and business and technical strategy.
