The Safe Choice Applications AFUMEX™ cables improve safety where expensive equipment or crucial processes are at risk. Control rooms, switchboards, panels, white rooms are  typical applications (i.e. in power plants, the petrochemical  industry, electronics, mines and the paper industry). Where large numbers of people congregate, often  in unfamiliar environments such as airports, stations,  indoor sports stadiums and concert arenas, fire poses  a significant risk to life.  AFUMEX™ significantly improves the safety aspect  of these venues. AFUMEX™ can be used in a wide range of commercial  applications including hotels, hospitals, schools, cinemas,  banks, commercial shopping centres and offices.  The level of safety in our homes can be significantly  increased through the use of AFUMEX™ cables providing  protection for our most valuable asset, our family. Industry Infrastructure Commercial Performance The most commonly identified cause of death from fire is being overcome by toxic gas or smoke.  In recent years, the increased use of plastics has had a dramatic effect on our daily lives. High smoke density formed by  burning PVC insulated cables severely decreases visibility and contributes to panic during escape making search and rescue  operations more difficult. Inhaling toxic gases such as carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide can result in suffocation and  death within minutes. Fire is tragic enough but it need not create more tragedy through loss of life during evacuation or rescue. Corrosive emissions during fire also bring about irreversible damage to all electrical, electronic and metallic equipment  within building structures. In response, Prysmian Cables & Systems has developed a family of Low Fire Hazard Cables that couple low flame spread  and heat release with very low emission of smoke and dangerous gases. These cables help to provide more time to escape  and a less hazardous environment for rescue teams.  The AFUMEX™ range of cables contains state of the art cable  insulation materials to provide flame retardancy with lower  toxic gas evolutions and significantly lower smoke density,  ensuring better visibility during evacuation, search and rescue.  Due to its zero halogen content, corrosive emissions into the  immediate environment are virtually eliminated, securing the  material integrity of electrical, electronic and metallic structures. AFUMEX™ cables are ideal for use in locations which have  a high density human occupation and/or frequent human  traffic, including high rises, historical buildings, hospitals  and universities. AFUMEX™ cables are more environmentally friendly due to reduced emissions of smoke and harmful effluent under fire conditions.  AFUMEX™ cables are part of the Ecology Line™ range, introduced by Prysmian in response to growing concerns  about high levels of lead in the environment. AFUMEX™ is a technologically and ecologically sound answer to the problem  of emissions caused by fire. Prysmian's Fire Performance cables  have been adopted for many major  projects throughout the world  including the Burj Dubai tower,  the tallest man-made structure in  the world, and the new Formula 1  Grand Prix circuit in Singapore.  2 HOUR FIRE SURVIVAL FLAME RETARDANT LOW SMOKE ZERO HALOGEN FLAME RETARDANT LOW SMOKE ZERO HALOGEN FLAME RETARDANT FIRESTOP FIRESTOP AFUMEX AFUMEX PVC PVC The most effective method of cabling to ensure maximum personnel safety and the security of valuable materials Residential AFUMEX™ (Low Fire Hazard) and Firestop (Fire Resistant)  cables are part of Prysmian’s Fire Performance range  which have been specifically developed to maximise safety  and eliminate security risks, providing peace of mind.
