With over 30 years’ experience in thermoplastics compounding, Mexichem is a market leader in custom-made, added-value solutions, in particular LSHF (Low Smoke Halogen Free) plastics under the MEGOLON® brand with production sites in the USA and the UK.
MEGOLON LSHF (LSZH/LS0H) cable and thermoplastic compounds use PIN flame retardant technologies to achieve flame resistance whilst generating only low levels of smoke and acid fumes in case of fire. They are used in industrial, energy, power, telecom and data cables, in particular in zones where people need to be evacuated rapidly and safely in an emergency, or in areas containing expensive equipment, including hotels, high-rise buildings, exhibition centres, hospitals, subway systems, airports, communication exchanges, offshore platforms, military applications, power generation facilities, oil and petrochemical installations and many others.
