Performance Overview
The fourth “P” of our sustainability cornerstones is Performance.
More recently, with the
divestiture of the PP&S segment in 2019 and the acquisition of Clariant
Masterbatch in 2020, we have fundamentally repositioned our portfolio to
that of a true specialty enterprise—from which we can springboard to even
greater heights in the future.

Additional Criteria
• Total heat release (MJ/m²)
• pHRR (kW/m²)
• Time of Ignition (s)
• Smoke production
• Acidity
• Flaming droplets
This example demonstrates the
need to consider the complete
cable design, as using XLPE for the
insulation layer would not give the
required Euroclass.
