Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) is a common choice for both power and control tray cables, providing excellent resistance to UV, heat and moisture. UV-stabilized PVC is another widely used material, with special additives that help prevent discoloration, cracking and premature aging in sunlight. The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) provides detailed guidelines for cable tray systems under IEC 61537.
