LSZH Wire and Cable: The Smart Choice for Safer, Eco-Friendly Electrical System

Why are more and more products now using low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) wire and cables?
Traditional PVC materials produce toxic smoke when burned, whereas LSZH materials have become a safer alternative due to their superior performance.
LSZH materials offer significant advantages: produce minimal smoke when burned, contain no halogen, and avoid releasing toxic gas. These materials comply with international environmental standards, are recyclable, and also exhibit excellent flame-retardant and high-temperature resistance properties. These characteristics make them an ideal choice for applications in construction, transportation, and other fields. In high-rise buildings, hospitals, and similar settings, LSZH cables significantly enhance fire safety. In confined spaces such as subways and tunnels, their adoption has led to a notable reduction in fire-related casualties. In the transportation sector—from high-speed trains and aircraft to new energy vehicles—LSZH materials are being widely used.
Common LSZH cable insulation materials include XLPE, PP, and TPE, with maximum heat resistance reaching up to 125°C. Hanstar provides LSZH cable solutions and high-quality products that have been successfully applied across various industries.
