At Delta Tecnic, a global leader in cable masterbatch innovation, we specialize in developing advanced masterbatch solutions tailored to meet the stringent technical, safety, and aesthetic requirements of the wire and cable industry.

This blog explores how Delta Tecnic’s cable masterbatch solutions enhance performance, compliance, and sustainability in automotive, energy, and telecom applications.

What is a Cable Masterbatch?

A cable masterbatch is a concentrated blend of pigments, additives, and carrier resins designed to impart specific properties to cable insulation and sheathing.

Key Components of a Cable Masterbatch:

• Pigments – Ensure precise color coding and opacity for easy cable identification.
• Additives – Provide UV resistance and protection against environmental stressors.
• Carrier Resins – Optimize compatibility with PVC, PE, LSOH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen), and other base polymers.

At Delta Tecnic, our cable masterbatch solutions are developed to meet international safety and quality standards, while also addressing industry-specific challenges.
