LAPP Targets Data Center Market with B2ca Fire-Resistant Cables
Global industrial cable manufacturer LAPP is positioning itself as a leading partner for the rapidly growing data center market with its range of B2ca-rated, highly fire-resistant cable equipment.
Data centers are energy-intensive sites subject to high thermal constraints and extreme service continuity requirements. A fire in a data center represents considerable economic cost, with operational shutdown costs reaching between €200,000 and €400,000 per hour, including operating losses, equipment damage, contractual penalties, and interruptions to critical services.
LAPP's fire-resistant cable capabilities:
One of the few cable manufacturers to have mastered all CPR fire classifications up to the highest level 1, class B2ca
Incorporates XLPE insulation, halogen-free LSZH sheathing, concentric or braided shielding
Strictly limits fire spread through sophisticated materials engineering
LAPP has production sites in France (Moselle and Var) and Italy that design and manufacture industrial cables for critical uses, supplying the French and European markets with a focus on industrial proximity, process control, and reducing dependencies. The data center market is set to become a strategic growth area for the group in the coming years
