Ensuring reliability for global and local data networks
Water-blocking, binding, bedding and separation tapes for data, optical fiber, and telecommunication cables
Freudenberg Performance Materials provides high-performance nonwoven cable tapes for a variety of industries. Our materials meet the specific quality and safety requirements of data and telecommunication cables, fiber optic cables, jelly-free or loose tube cables, twisted pair, and coaxial cables. They contribute to building reliable global and local data networks and enabling antenna connections for wireless data networks such as 5G.

Key Features
- Strong and smooth binding and separation tapes with excellent homogeneity
- Thin water-blocking tapes with rapid swelling performance
- Voluminous, flexible bedding, and water blocking tapes for effective heat insulation
- Customized spools matching cable length of up to 100 km
- Optimized tape splicing solutions tailored to specific tapes and cable processes
Key Benefits
- The highest quality standards reduce the risk of tape breaks during high-speed cable production
- Increased production efficiency due to higher tape length and fewer roll changes
- Improved cable quality due to consistent product properties along the full length

Ultra-thin nonwovens for maximum safety and efficient processes
Our very thin water-blocking tapes and PET film-laminated solutions ensure smoother production and handling of data cables in comparison with other types of cables with loose SAP powder or jelly fillers. These traditional materials make it more difficult to maintain consistent quality and safety throughout the manufacturing process.
Special cables made to measure
Apart from data and telecom cables, we develop tailor-made tape solutions for dynamic cables (e.g., those used in robotic arms and elevators) and safety cables (e.g., in trains and on cruise ships). We also provide electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding tapes for automotive, medical, and construction cables.
