XLPE Pexchem®

XLPE (CROSS LINKED POLYETHYLENE) PEXCHEM®
XLPE (Cross Linked Polyethylene) for Low Voltage Energy Cables raw materials production was implemented by Özşahin, for the first time in Turkey with 100 % domestic capital. Serial production facilities started up in Dudullu manufacturing plant in 2012.

Our raw material production named as Pexchem®, has been tested and approved by all standards of TSE Laboratories and has gained great appreciation by all local consumers.

Pexchem® has also been tested by XLPE raw material quality tests, both HotSet and Schrinkage and proved higher quality values than its top competitors.

As Özşahin, we are capable in taking custom orders and requests for production. Thanks to our years of experience, technical knowledge, laboratory and machineries we are able to work in accordance, covering all demands of any tailor- made orders.
