Once the framework is established, the
development process kicks into high gear,
utilizing a comprehensive toolbox of cutting-edge
technologies:
• Mood boards for conceptualization
• Extensive color libraries, both physical
and digital
• Rapid prototyping and sampling
• Photorealistic 3D rendering
• Accurate cost and feasibility
assessment tools
This iterative process allows for quick turnarounds
and efficient approvals, ensuring that the final
product meets all expectations.
Additional Services
• Color consultation to select or develop quick
color and effect concepts
• Polymer technology consultation to
find solutions for technical and material
challenges
• Prototyping and sampling to best visualize
color and effect considering polymer type,
shape, and texture
• Brand color management to ensure global
color consistency
• Color education and training to impart plastic
coloration knowledge to non-experts
• ColorForward™ color trend forecasting tool
to provide insights into the CMF concepts
expected to trend in the coming years

OnColor™ IR Sortable Black
Infrared Sortable Black for Recyclable Packaging
OnColor™ Infrared Sortable Black for Recyclable
Packaging is a black colorant created without the
addition of carbon black pigment.
OnColor IR Sortable Black is available in a range of
blacks, and can also be customized to support the
needs of brand owners, allowing black packaging
to remain an option for current products.
In the
presence of carbon black, currently used to color
most black packaging, all the wavelengths are
absorbed and black polymers can’t be identified,
inevitably keeping black packaging out of recycling
streams at considerable cost to our environment.
