Wednesday, Jul 01, 2009

Houston Wire & Cable Company announced that its LifeGuard(tm) jacketed private label cable is a technologically advanced alternative for Hypalon(r).

In a press release dated, May 7, 2009, DuPont Performance Elastomers, the manufacturer of Hypalon(r), announced they will begin to exit the

Hypalon(r) business.

LifeGuard(tm) is a green-recognized low-smoke, zero-halogen polymer that provides significant advantages over traditional jackets used in cable construction. The result is an advanced cable design that adds a new dimension of functionality, value and safety that was previously unavailable. To see how LifeGuard(tm) outperforms Hypalon(r), click here.
