Optical Fiber
HEC-Holland pioneers in supplying premium fibre optic cable materials, designed to meet modern installation requirements. These materials enable the production of optical fibre cables with features such as small diameter, low weight, and high tensile strength, facilitating easy installation. Compliant with stringent regulations, these cables can be flame-retardant and halogen-free.
Optical Fiber Cables for Demanding Applications
Optical fibre cables are essential for modern communication networks. They enable high-speed data transmission in telecommunications, data networks and FTTx applications. At the same time, cable designs are becoming smaller, lighter and more demanding.
HEC-Holland supplies a broad range of materials for optical fibre cable manufacturers. Our materials support different cable constructions and help manufacturers achieve the required combination of performance, protection and processability.
We supply materials for both indoor and outdoor applications, as well as demanding environments where cables need additional protection. Our product range supports constructions such as loose-tube, central-tube, ribbon, micro-duct and sensing fibre optic cables.

Materials for Optical Fibre Cable Construction
Depending on the cable design, manufacturers can require materials for jacketing, tubing, waterblocking, binding, bedding, strength members and protection. HEC-Holland supplies a broad selection of these materials, allowing customers to source multiple components from one experienced partner.
Our optical fibre product range includes:
- (HFFR) jacketing compounds
- PBT compounds
- Waterblocking tapes
- Bedding and binding tapes
- Aluminium tapes and foils
- Steel tapes
- PE, aramid and glass yarns
- Cable filling gels
- Superabsorbent polymers
- FRP
Solutions for Different Cable Designs
Different applications require different cable constructions. Therefore, we provide material solutions for applications such as rodent protection, steel wire armouring and humidity-resistant cable designs.
Our materials also support universal optical fibre cables, helping manufacturers develop versatile constructions. For mini and micro cables, our solutions are designed with compactness and low weight in mind. These materials can be used in access networks and FTTx applications, including micro-duct systems.
Technical Support
Selecting the right materials is an important part of developing a reliable optical fibre cable. Our technical and sales engineers can help you select materials that match your cable construction, production process and application.
We can also look at opportunities to improve your cable design, reduce total cost of ownership and support more sustainable material choices. Whether you are developing a new optical fibre cable or optimising an existing construction, we work with you to find a suitable solution.
