Solutions by Application
Cable Insulation & Sheathing
- ELATUR® – Plasticizers → for high temperature cable applications. ELATUR® TM is a specialty plasticizer with very low volatility and an excellent migration profile; ELATUR® DINCD offers low-temperature flexibility and very low volatility
- VESTENAMER® – Processing additive for rubber compounds used in cable and hose extrusion, enhancing flexibility and durability.
- VESTAMID®, VESTODUR® - High-performance thermoplastics for cable and wire coating/jacketing, and cable protection tubes. Due to their mechanical properties and flame retardant characteristics, these materials are especially suited for fiber optic cables, tight and semi-tight buffer cables, and loose tube applications.
- VESTAKEEP® - Polyether Ether Ketone (PEEK) for cable and wire coatings in high-end applications, including copper wire insulation.
Pipe Systems & Infrastructure
- VESTAMID® NRG – Special-grade polyamide 12 (PA12), designed for pipelines and gas distribution infrastructure.
- VESTAPE® - Unidirectional fiber tapes for reinforcement layers in oil and gas pipelines.
- VISIOMER® – Specialty Methacrylates as reactive diluents for Cured-In-Place Pipe (CIPP), a trenchless pipe rehabilitation technology for damaged pipelines
