SABIC Innovative Plastics anuncia la obtención de la certificación VDE para diez materiales retardantes a la llama utilizados en la fabricación de electrodomésticos
BERGEN OP ZOOM, Países Bajos – 5 de agosto de year – SABIC Innovative Plastics acaba de anunciar que su nueva gama de materiales retardantes a la llama, han conseguido la certificación del organismo de homologación alemán VDE (Verband der Elektrotechnik Elektronik Informationstechnik e.V). Con esta nueva gama, se pretende que los fabricantes de electrodomésticos obtengan antes las homologaciones y, por tanto, agilicen la comercialización de sus productos. Estos diez materiales han superado las estrictas pruebas de la VDE sobre conformidad con la norma IEC 60335 para electrodomésticos automáticos, especialmente la recién incluida prueba de ignición por hilo incandescente (GWIT) para inflamabilidad. Gracias a ellos, los fabricantes ya no tendrán que dedicar tiempo ni recursos a la realización de pruebas adicionales para las piezas plásticas. Además, la gran variedad de productos de esta gama, que incluye numerosos grados sin aditivos halogenados, facilita la compra, ya que basta con recurrir a un único proveedor. La inversión realizada por SABIC Innovative Plastics en iniciativas destinadas a la obtención de certificaciones conlleva grandes ventajas para los clientes, pues simplifica y acorta el proceso de desarrollo de los productos.
