Medium Voltage

High productivity Borlink™ XLPE insulation enables increased productivity at low cost, whilst sustainably improving production flexibility. Keeping up with the needs of power distributors is a huge challenge for medium voltage (MV) cable makers as they need to be able to raise production levels in a cost-effective way without compromising cable quality or long-term reliability, whilst continuing to meet sustainability requirements.

With Borlink™ high productivity XLPE from Borealis, cable makers now hold the key to increasing their production, whilst lowering their costs. Our Borlink™ copolymer offering allows 10–20% faster cable manufacturing than classic homopolymer XLPE, whilst delivering an outstanding wet ageing electrical performance that meets the most stringent of market requirements. In addition to this, our Borlink™ homopolymer offering based on Supercure technology means cable makers can potentially extend production runs by more than 30%, thanks to its superb scorch-retardant properties.
