PVC/PE & EVA MASTERBATCH DELTAVINIL & DELTAPLAST Outdoor jacketing
PVC/PE & EVA masterbatches from Delta Tecnic are designed for the colouring of energy cables used in outdoor installations, where UV resistance and environmental durability are essential to ensure long-term cable performance.
Outdoor cable jacketing must maintain colour stability, mechanical properties and resistance to environmental degradation over long periods of exposure to solar radiation, humidity and temperature variations.
Delta Tecnic colour solutions combine high lightfastness pigments with specific stabilizers, helping to preserve polymer performance while maintaining a uniform cable appearance throughout its service life.
These solutions are available for PVC, PE, EVA and HFFR compounds, adapting to different energy cable manufacturing technologies.

Delta Tecnic masterbatches for outdoor jacketing are formulated to deliver reliable performance under harsh environmental conditions.
Key features include:
- UV-stabilised formulations: Pigments and additives are carefully selected to minimise degradation caused by prolonged solar exposure.
- Colour fade resistance: Formulations are designed to reduce colour loss under weathering conditions, maintaining cable appearance over time.
- Stable mechanical properties: In addition to colour stability, the solutions preserve the mechanical integrity of the polymer used in cable jacketing.
- Long-term outdoor durability: Masterbatches are specifically developed for cables installed in exposed energy infrastructure environments.
- High-concentration options for HFFR compounds: Delta Tecnic also offers solutions tailored for highly filled compounds, where colour dispersion can be more challenging.
The range covers PVC, PE and HFFR compounds, with colours based on RAL standards, ensuring visual consistency in electrical installations.
Additionally, Delta Tecnic operates a specialised laboratory to monitor colour fading and mechanical property retention under outdoor exposure conditions.
Applications
Outdoor jacketing masterbatches are designed for energy cables installed in environments where environmental resistance is critical.
Typical applications:
- Power distribution networks: Outdoor electrical distribution systems.
- Renewable energy installations: Energy infrastructure such as solar and wind farms.
- Industrial and infrastructure projects: Installations where cables are exposed to demanding environmental conditions.
These applications require high UV resistance, colour stability and long-term polymer durability, all ensured by DELTAVINIL and DELTAPLAST solutions
Technical FAQs
Why is UV resistance important in outdoor cables?
UV radiation can degrade the polymer and cause colour fading. UV-stabilised masterbatches help protect the material.
Which polymers are compatible with these solutions?
Solutions are designed for PVC, PE, EVA and HFFR compounds used in cable jacketing.
What lightfastness levels do the pigments offer?
Depending on the colour, pigments can reach lightfastness levels up to 8, ensuring high colour stability.
Can formulations be customised?
Yes. Delta Tecnic can develop UV-stabilised formulations tailored to specific customer or project requirements.
