This new Versaflex offering can be pre-colored to specifications or used with a PolyOne OnColor™ masterbatch colorant.

Color Masterbatches: OnColor™

Cesa Bio Additives are not only suitable for your manufacturing process, they also meet relevant industry and composting standards, and can be combined with OnColor™ Bio Colorants to deliver performance and color in a single masterbatch.  

They work in both hot and cold fog conditions, and in mono and multilayer film, thanks to a combination of multi-additives in the masterbatch formulation that allows good fog clearance performance before and after lamination.
