The coloration of biodegradable polymers—such
as PLA, PHA, PBAT or blends—requires a careful
selection of pigments that must comply with strict
environmental standards.

Reduces yellowing
through recycling and provides bottle blowing benefits as
well as reduced carbon emissions.
Converters are seeking opportunities to maximize the
efficiency of the bottle blowing process while reducing
carbon emissions.
ColorMatrix™ AAzure™ Process Aid - Helps reduce and
control acetaldehyde levels that can cause off-tastes in PET
packaged water; provides bottle blowing benefits, as well
as reduces carbon emissions.

Because this material is injection-moldable, you can add
more electronics inside the housing and even reduce the device’s overall footprint.
Adding electronics, minimizing footprint –
Using Therma-Tech material for your housing allows
you to add more electronics without concerns of
excess heat impacting device functionality.

These
investments also consider our global footprint, and we are
positioned very well and strategically from a regional perspective.
