Due to the growing success of EcoWire in the marketplace, and increasing customer demand, Alpha Wire is now offering the environmentally friendly hook-up wire in 12 standard colours.
Dark blue is a very popular colour in the programmable logic controller (PLC) industry, specifically in I/O applications. Adding this colour to the standard selection allows EcoWire to be more prominently used in panel building and all DC circuitry.
EcoWire is an engineering accomplishment that combines high performance in hook-up wire with minimised environmental impact. It derives its advantage from unique modified polyphenylene ether (mPPE) insulation. This produces a wire that is up to 45% smaller and 40% lighter with 10x the abrasion resistance of PVC wire. The eco-friendly wire contains no halogens, phthalates or heavy metals, and meets the RoHS and WEEE requirements for the elimination of hazardous substances and recyclability.
While the dark blue colour will be part of the standard colour selection on EcoWire, dark blue with white striping, and white with dark blue striping, will both be available as custom orders.
