When should I specify TPU (PUR) over TPE for cable jacketing?

The choice depends on the severity of the industrial environment:

TPU/PUR (Polyurethane): Offers superior abrasion resistance, tear strength, and chemical durability. It is the gold standard for public charging stations with high mechanical wear.

TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer): Provides better flexibility at extremely low temperatures and is generally more cost-effective for private home-charging or portable units.
