The white goods industry is facing increasing pressure to move away from fluoropolymer cables, including those containing PFAS, due to growing environmental and health concerns. These "forever chemicals" pose significant risks, prompting a search for safer alternatives.
While silicone is a fundamentally PFAS-free material, not all types automatically meet the strict requirements for fire behaviour prescribed by UL regulations.
As a leading provider of silicone cable solutions, BizLink already has a wide range of UL-recognized silicone cables and the expertise to develop such types.
This case study highlights BizLink's proactive approach to addressing the challenges posed by PFAS in the cable industry. It emphasizes the company's global reach and customer-focused strategy in delivering innovative and environmentally responsible products.
