Your Cable Manufacturer in Germany: Quality from Plastro Mayer

Plastro Mayer is your cable manufacturer from Germany and has been operating as a third-generation family business in Trochtelfingen since 1957. As specialists in cable manufacturing and custom cable assembly, we produce grounding cables, specialty cables, and custom cables—from the copper conductor to the outer jacket—all on a single production line.

We place the utmost importance on safety standards and quality assurance for our products, which are subject to rigorous testing procedures. Every one of our cables undergoes 100% electrical testing, and the quality management system for all Plastro Mayer products is certified to DIN ISO 9001:2015. Our cable production is also regularly monitored by the VDE in accordance with national and harmonized standards.

As a supplier to industry and commerce, we provide companies in mechanical engineering, the household appliance industry, electrical engineering, and many other sectors with cables and wires, in both small and large production runs. Upon customer request, we customize each cable individually: connector type, number of conductors, conductor cross-section, length, jacket color, and end termination—all from a single source. Outstanding quality, reliable delivery, and a fair price-performance ratio make us a trusted cable supplier in Germany.

Our client list ranges from well-known companies such as Kärcher and Liebherr to Miele, because at Plastro Mayer, in addition to custom-made products, you’ll find a comprehensive solution for your entire equipment manufacturing process—from injection molding to final assembly.

Materials for Cable Manufacturing

Depending on the application, we select the appropriate material for the conductor insulation and jacket. This results in cables that are mechanically, thermally, and chemically suited to the specific application.

Material Features Typical Applications 
PVC flexible, weather- and chemical-resistant, cost-effective Household appliances, office equipment, standard power cords 
PUR Highly abrasion-resistant, oil- and coolant-resistant, cold-resistant Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Applications, Moving Applications
Silicone High-temperature resistant (up to approx. +180°C), cold-resistant (down to approx. -50°C) Heating Equipment, Lighting Technology, Medical Technology
Rubber(Elastomer) Highly flexible, high mechanical strength, good resistance to weathering, ozone, and UV radiation, temperature-resistant Construction sites, hand tools, extension cords, indoor and outdoor industrial applications

In addition, Plastro Mayer offers halogen-free cables for sale, but does not manufacture or process them on-site.

Cable Types and H05VV-F, H03VV-F, H05RR-F, H05SS-F, H05BQ-F, H05RN-F

As a cable manufacturer in Germany, we offer a wide range of products that cover the majority of common applications: extension cords, power cords (for low-temperature, medium-temperature, and high-temperature equipment), grounded outlets, appliance receptacles and plugs, cable glands, adapters, and custom parts in various designs and to different standards. You’ll find a complete overview in our catalog.

Connector types

The Plastro Mayer range includes around 28 different plug types to connect your devices safely and reliably to the power supply in different countries. If you also select the right cable, we can assemble your plug directly.

Supply lines

As a cable supplier, we customize the mains connection cables between your electrical appliance and the plug connector to meet your needs, from earthing contact cables to cold and hot appliance supply cables. We also have standard cables in stock that can be perfectly adapted to your order. Please note the required cable type when selecting the supply cable.

Device sockets and device plugs

Plastro Mayer offers various adapters to ensure compatibility between two different interfaces or connection types. In addition, we also manufacture individual special parts on customer request, whether in large or small series. Simply contact us personally.

Protective contact socket outlets

As a manufacturer of socket outlets, our comprehensive range also includes single and multiple socket outlets with earthing contact in various technical and design versions. 

Strain reliefs

Cable grommets are small but important components in many electrical installations and projects. They are used to route cables through walls, housings or control cabinets, while at the same time protecting the cable from damage and ensuring safe cable routing.

Special parts and adapters

Appliance plugs and appliance sockets are components that are used for the simple and safe electrical connection of devices to a power source. Find the right appliance sockets and plugs for your needs, from appliance plugs and central appliance sockets to angled appliance sockets.

Industries for which we manufacture wires and cables

Our cables and assembled wiring harnesses are used across all industries. Typical applications include: 

  • Mechanical Engineering – Control cables and connection cables for industrial machinery
  • Medical Technology – Certified power cords for medical devices
  • Household Appliances – Power cords for cold, warm, and hot appliances for leading manufacturers
  • Electrical Engineering & Electronics – Custom assemblies for equipment manufacturers
  • Automation – Custom cables and control and plant engineering

FAQ's cable manufacturer

What is the difference between cable manufacturing and cable assembly?
As a cable manufacturer, we produce the cable ourselves: We extrude the copper conductors with core insulation and an outer jacket on a fully automated production line. During cable assembly, a finished cable is then cut to length, stripped, and fitted with plugs, sockets, or other connectors. Plastro Mayer offers both services from a single source—from cable sold by the meter to cables assembled and ready for installation.
As a cable manufacturer, which industries does Plastro Mayer supply?
We supply cables and assembled cables primarily to the mechanical engineering, medical technology, and household appliance industries, as well as to the electrical engineering and automation sectors and to manufacturers in the heating, air conditioning, and plumbing industries. For many of these customers, we produce power cords in country-specific versions for worldwide export.
What materials does Plastro Mayer use in the manufacture of cables and wires?
We use PVC for our standard insulation and sheathing. For more demanding applications, we also use PUR (abrasion- and oil-resistant), silicone (high-temperature-resistant), and rubber (flexible, mechanically durable, temperature-resistant), depending on your requirements. We’ll work with you to determine the optimal material combination during our initial consultation.
