After being the first to introduce F.R.L.S type wire in India, We are again first in bringing Low Smoke Zero Halogen wires for domestic and commercial projects, as the name suggests it is totally halogen free, which makes it emit almost zero smoke. At the moment this type of cable is available against bulk orders only.
For our L.S.Z.H wires we use HALBAN imported compound for insulation. It is a polyolefin thermoplastic compound with a halogen free fire retardant system which gives a cable Non fire propagating, Self-extinguishing properties Without emission of corrosive and toxic gases, with almost Nil Smoke generation. This ensures high level of safety in any installation with respect to fire situations while maintaining all performance parameters.
Non Toxic – Most deaths in case of fire happen due to chocking caused by burning of normal PVC wire which emits dangerous gases. L.C. Premium cables FRLS range releases lesser toxic gases compared to ordinary PVC cables and LSZH on other hand emits zero toxic gases. These wires are best suited for wiring in hospitals, hotels, business establishments and high rise buildings where fire can be detrimental.
This is to certify that we at L.C. International use HALBAN™ imported compound for insulating our ZHLS wires under brand name L.C. Premium Cables. It is a polyolefin thermoplastic compound with a halogen free fire retardant system which gives a cable Non fire propagating, Self-extinguishing properties Without emission of corrosive and toxic gases, with almost Nil Smoke generation. This ensures high level of safety in any installation with respect to fire situations while maintaining all performance parameters.
