Sustainable development has become a major concern in As a result, Nexans Olex have developed a three tier offering our society in recent years. For the construction industry, for its range of environmental, fire and safety cables for the particularly in buildings, sustainable development implies building and construction industry based on the following a built environment which is habitable, safe and healthy. considerations: Nexans Olex recognizes the importance of sustainable Adopting GBCA guidelines on Best Practice PVC, to ensure development in the building and construction industry and this material is used (manufactured and processed) in a opportunities for advancement of cable design and technology. responsible manner throughout our manufacturing plants, suppliers’ value chain and end of life management. Halogen free fire retardant products for a safe and healthy building environment. Long life cables made from materials with low environmental impact both during and after service life. 2 | Environmental, fire and safety cables PVC Best Practice Manufactured Cables Nexans Olex complies with GBCA PVC Best Practice Guidelines. All PVC used in Nexans Olex manufactured cables follows the guidelines for Best Practice PVC. Using Nexans Olex manufactured PVC cables can contribute to your project earning points towards your new building’s GBCA Green Star rating (PVC Best Practice Audit document is available upon request). Alsecure® Envirolex® Extensive range of enhanced performance cables for the construction industry engineered from low smoke halogen free materials with improved fire retardant properties (over standard PVC cables) reduced smoke, acid gas and hazardous fume generation particularly under fire conditions, while retaining the excellent mechanical and electrical properties designed into Nexans Olex cables. Alsecure® Premium INFIT® (Ceramifiable®) Complete range of high performance fire safety/ fire resistant cables engineered from materials developed in conjunction with CSIRO. This unique cable polymeric insulation material hardens into a protective ceramic shield when exposed to fire, maintaining circuit integrity and life-saving essential services. In addition to its unique property, the material has low calorific value and fire retardant properties with minimal generation of hazardous smoke and corrosive fume emissions. Electric cables and their use can contribute towards sustainable construction because they can be an important contributor to energy efficiency, providing a safe and healthy built environment and protect people and equipment in case of emergency or fire.

Fire may destroy everything else in its path, but Alsecure® Ceramifiable® literally gets tougher. Ceramifiable’s insulation layer hardens into a protective ceramic shield when exposed to fire, maintaining circuit integrity and life-saving essential services. Alsecure® Ceramifiable® stands up to fire without mica tape, making it more flexible and easier to strip then traditional fire rated cables. 12 ALSECURE PREMIUM INFIT™ ® INFIT™ – Alsecure Premium in Fire Safety Cables Breakthrough Originally developed in conjunction with the CSIRO & Cooperative Research Centre for Alsecure® Premium INFIT™ Polymers, Alsecure® Premium INFIT™ utilises the latest in polymer composite technology. Single Core Flex 90°C 14 Multicore 90ºC 16 Unlike conventional polymers that breakdown in a fire emergency, the INFIT (previously known as Ceramifiable®) polymer technology transforms from a flexible, plastic covering into a tough insulating ceramic barrier that preserves circuit integrity (no breaks or short Instrumentation and Data circuits) of essential/critical services and equipment such as fire alarms, emergency (COMING SOON) 20 lighting, pumps, fans and important process safety continue to operate for period Applications of time. How does Alsecure® Premium® INFIT™ work? INFIT™ technology operates by including the components to form a ceramic material into a polymeric matrix that is the insulation of the cable. These components are able to form a ceramic when activated by the high temperature of a fire. The aspect that defines the product is that the transition is seamless, in that the ceramic is forming at the same time as the polymer is degrading. This means that the insulation shape and size remains approximately the same before and after a fire.
