Draka Saffire Cables

Draka has placed itself at the forefront of cable design and material technology and is able to assist it’s customers in meeting ever more demanding requirements placed on cable performance, through an ongoing process of close technical co-operation with its end-users. Illustrating this commitment has been the company’s development of its Zero Halogen, Low Smoke OHLS® range of fire performance cables.

Draka UK engineers have developed this range working closely with major specifying and testing bodies such as London Underground, British Nuclear Fuels, BAA and LPCB Cables within the Saffire OHLS® range show significantly improved performance, when compared with other cables, in meeting the demands of the specific hazards within a fire situation. This is achieved by the reduction of harmful gases and smoke production during burning.

OHLS® cables are particularly suitable for use in buildings and constructions such as hospitals, theatres, shopping precincts, tunnels and public utilities where protection of life, equipment and structures is essential.
