Market Dynamics

Introduction

Heat-shrink tubing is a plastic tube that helps insulate wire and provides corrosion and environmental protection for stranded and solid wire conductors, and joint terminals in electrical work. It helps in repairing the insulation on wires and also protects them from abrasion and creates cable seals, offering environmental seal protection.

Market Drivers

Various government drives to upgrade and expand the T&D systems and incessant developments in the global power generation capacity are the major factors expected to bolster the market during the forecast period.
