The substantial increase in halogen-free low-smoke flame-retardant environmental protection cables is the general trend

Product environmental protection is already a global consensus, and any industry enterprise must abide by this rule. The concept of energy conservation and environmental protection originated in the United States and has been deeply rooted in the world with the development of globalization. The destruction of the environment is the price of economic development, and more and more people realize that the worsening of the environment cannot be exchanged for rapid economic development. For China, this point is particularly profound. Accompanying China's three decades of sustained rapid economic growth, the proud achievements are the overall environmental damage and the damage to the health of the residents.

In recent years, a large area of smog has occurred many times across the country, and the incidence is getting worse every year; the groundwater in most cities is heavily polluted, and the trend is increasing year by year, which has exacerbated the contradiction of water shortage, and so on. These environmental resource issues have broken the coordinated development between China's economic development and environmental carrying capacity, and affected the sustainable development of China's economy. The urgency of environmental and resource issues is forcing the transformation and upgrading of China's economy. The transformation and upgrading of the economy involves various industries and all aspects of the industry. As an important industry in the machinery industry, wires and cables are bound to be affected by the environment and face transformation and upgrading.

It is conceivable that companies that are not environmentally friendly will not survive in the future, and this is also true for the wire and cable industry. In the wire and cable industry, attention has also been paid to the development and promotion of environmentally friendly cables. International and domestic increasingly perfect, strict environmental protection, relevant regulations and standards have promoted the further expansion of the market for environmentally friendly wire and cable products. Under the new situation, the development of the domestic wire and cable industry is showing new trends, and environmentally friendly cables have gradually become the focus of the development of the cable market. International and domestic increasingly perfect and strict environments, relevant regulations and standards have promoted the further expansion of the environmental protection cable market, and the development and large-scale adoption of environmental protection cables has become an international trend. In the domestic and foreign markets, more attention is paid to the use of green environmental protection cables, and environmental protection cables have become the bidding ticket for power grid companies.

Environmentally friendly cables will strongly promote the development of the cable industry, enhance the competitiveness of cable manufacturers, and in green practice and innovation, make the cable industry more stable on the road of sustainable development. In view of the serious pollution of conventional cables, a large amount of pollutants such as dioxins, lead, cadmium, and halides will appear in the process of manufacturing, use, and waste disposal, and the use of them in developed countries is becoming less and less. Especially after the EU established the ROHS Directive, Europe, the United States, Japan and other countries have increasingly higher environmental protection requirements for the cables used. Their governments not only impose strict restrictions on emissions from the manufacturing process of wires and cables, but also impose restrictions on the waste of wires and cables. The implementation of comprehensive monitoring has forced wire and cable manufacturers to replace traditional materials with materials that meet environmental protection requirements to manufacture environmentally friendly wires and cables, or "clean wire and cable products" or "green wire and cable products." They have banned the use or import of non-environmentally friendly cables, and the research and development and large-scale adoption of eco-friendly cables have become the international mainstream. In recent years, my country’s cable companies have gradually worked towards environmental protection cables, low-smoke and halogen-free cables, etc., as far as possible to be free of heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, mercury, bromine-based flame retardants, and no harmful halogen gases. There is no corrosive gas, less heat when burning, no pollution to the soil, etc., environmentally friendly cables will be more favored by the market, and it will be easier to obtain high orders in the bidding of power grid companies.

Nowadays, it is mandatory to use environmentally friendly cables in major projects in our country. After the EU enacted the EU environmental protection directives, Europe, the United States, Japan and other countries have increasingly higher environmental protection requirements for the cables used, and they have prohibited the use or import of non-environmental protection cables. Environmental issues have received more and more attention around the world, which will greatly stimulate the growth of demand for environmentally friendly wires and cables. Coupled with higher profits compared to conventional cables, the development trend of environmentally friendly cables is irreversible. The use of non-environmental protection cables is strictly prohibited in developed countries, and our country also attaches great importance to this field. Relevant laws and regulations of our country clearly require that important buildings prohibit the use of polyvinyl chloride wires and cables, and halogen-free low-smoke cross-linked polyolefin insulated wires and cables must be used to avoid a large amount of smoke and chlorine in the event of a fire, which may cause casualties.

At present, Beijing and Shanghai have banned the use of non-environmentally friendly cables, and the railway, communications, and electronics departments have also issued relevant regulations. It can be predicted that the application of non-environmentally friendly cables in construction, transportation, communications, power grids and all large and medium-sized cities will be more and more restricted. Halogen-free, low-smoke, flame-retardant and environmentally friendly cables have become an urgent development trend in the cable industry. In fact, low-smoke and halogen-free cables are widely used in places where halogen-free, low-smoke, flame-retardant requirements and high safety and environmental protection requirements are required, such as high-rise buildings, stations, subways, airports, hospitals, large libraries and other crowded places. When the environmental protection cable is burned, it will not release a large amount of dense smoke and corrosive halides, and will not cause "secondary disasters". The PVC insulated cables produced by Huada Cable can be produced according to user requirements, such as special cables such as flame-retardant, fire-resistant, halogen-free low voltage, anti-termite, and anti-rodent.

It is understood that the primary technical conditions of environmentally friendly cables are halogen-free, low-smoke, heavy metals, and pollution-free, but its waste disposal and recycling are also very important. Only by producing cable products that meet market demand and the development of the times, can the competitiveness of cable manufacturers be effectively improved and inject impetus to win the market. "With the rapid economic development, the continuous updating of high-tech, and the high-level development of products, the substantial increase in the variety and quantity of halogen-free low-smoke flame-retardant cables is the general trend.

The competition of enterprises is the competition of comprehensive strength, but the most important product competition is the competition of technology, which is the competition of improving resources and resource efficiency. To penetrate environmentally friendly cables into all corners of the market, in addition to using laws and regulations to restrict the use of non-environmentally friendly cables, another issue is the recycling of waste wire and cable products, that is to say, we must grasp both hands and actively develop with one hand. Environmentally friendly wire and cable products, the other hand is to strengthen the recycling of waste wire and cable products.

In general, environmentally friendly cables are a major trend. Environmentally friendly cables will strongly promote the development of the cable industry, enhance the competitiveness of cable manufacturers, and make the cable industry more stable on the path of sustainable development through green practice and innovation. The essence of circular economy is to improve resource utilization by adopting high-tech and clean production technology. Therefore, electrical enterprises must make important adjustments to resource utilization and management methods. Enterprises must establish environmental cost awareness and pay attention to resource reduction in the economic cycle. Chemical; product reuse; principles of waste recycling.
