The ElTech portfolio from Ampacet was recently expanded to include a range of high-performance color masterbatches based on a PBT carrier resin and specifically designed for optical fiber cable PBT jacketing, often selected for indoor optical fiber cables used in building and construction as well as in data centers. For ease of installation, optical fiber cable manufacturers use a color-coding system such as the RAL system to identify individual optical fibers.

According to the company, ElTech masterbatches for optical fiber cable preserve high-performance signal transmission and feature excellent opacity at a low addition rate, high resistance to heat and color fading, and include 16 colors that comply with RAL color references. Additional shades using custom colors or color-coding systems such as RAL or Pantone can be developed upon request.

The ELTech product range also includes masterbatches combining color with functional additives.
