When designing outdoor lighting, signage, or landscape installations, UV resistance is crucial. Ordinary plastics degrade under prolonged sunlight, causing discoloration, cracking, or loss of flexibility. Outdoor cable sleeves made from UV-resistant PET solve this problem.
Black PET braided sleeves are the most common. Carbon black provides natural UV protection and improves thermal and flame resistance. This makes black sleeves reliable for long-term outdoor use.
Many architects and designers prefer white or light-colored sleeves for aesthetics, especially on modern facades or decorative lighting. High-grade UV stabilizers and colorfast pigments keep these sleeves from fading or chalking. Quality white PET sleeves maintain color, flexibility, and durability even outdoors.
PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) also offers excellent abrasion and corrosion resistance, a wide temperature range, and high flexibility. It adapts easily to tight or curved installations and works well with various wiring and bundling methods.
Choosing the right outdoor cable sleeves protects your cables and preserves the visual and functional integrity of your project. Investing in UV-resistant PET braided sleeves ensures longer service life, fewer maintenance issues, and a cleaner, safer installation.
