Bio-based Polymer Colorants and Additives
Launched in 2021, Mevopur™ Healthcare Bio-based Polymer Solutions are color and additive concentrates and ready-to-use formulations manufactured with bio-based polypropylene, polyethylene, polycarbonate, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, or styrenic polymers.
The data sheet of each Mevopur bio-based concentrate will include the percentage of bio-based content and the Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) value to help healthcare product manufacturers calculate a product's environmental impact.

Another color-related challenge is the multitude of different color streams of
recycled PET, which can limit the uses for recycled colored PET.
Colored PET—As manufacturers look to transfer packaging away from less recycled
polymers to PET, there is an expectation that color will remain an important brand
differentiator on the shelves.
Sheet & Film—Sheets and films made
of PET are another major use case.
