Cesa™ Aversive Technology for Wire & Cable Protection
Masterbatch additives for long-term cable protection against rats
and termites, compliant with the EU Biocidal Product Regulation (BPR)
PRODUCT BULLETIN
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Cesa™ Aversive Technologies are masterbatches
which, when incorporated into cable jackets,
provide long-term protection against gnawing
by rats and termites.
Cesa Aversive Technologies also support
sustainability by contributing to cables with longer
lasting protection.
Longer lasting protection can help
avoid unplanned service breakdowns and associated
high costs for repairing or installing brand new
replacement cables.
