Development Trend 1 for Fire Alarm Cables: Iteration in Technology and Materials

Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) and Smart-Electric

Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) have become mandatory mainstreams: Driven by the EU Building Products Regulation (CPR) and increasingly stringent safety directives in various regions, demand for LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) cables capable of reducing the release of highly toxic, dense smoke during fires has surged; this market segment is expected to maintain strong growth of over 6% through 2033. Cross-linked Polyethylene (XLPE) dominates the insulation market: Given its high heat resistance, ultra-long service life, and compliance with the IEC 60502 standard, XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene) will account for approximately 43% of the global insulation material market share by 2026. Lightweight solutions and novel Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPE): With the development of the electric vehicle (EV) and smart robotics industries, manufacturers are accelerating the development of TPE insulation fire alarm cables that combine fire resistance, flame-retardant properties, and lightweight characteristics.
