These concentrates contain a very high pigment
load, allowing low addition rates (one percent or
lower) and reduce color variation from one resin
type to another.

KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Excellent lot-to-lot and within-lot consistency for
high-quality homogeneous black shades
• Easy processing and support of a long-lasting
spin pack lifetime
• Fastness properties and specification tolerances
on par with high-end products on the market
• Standard and bluish undertones available
in high pigment loadings for an efficient and
competitive coloration package
• Can be combined with additives into a single
combination concentrate for convenience
• Compliance with global, regional, and local
standards and regulations*
RECOMMENDED USE
• In most cases, the concentrate is added
directly to the resin using gravimetric or
volumetric dosing units; for some processes,
the concentrate can be added via a side stream
extruder (direct spinning)
• The recommended dosages are from 3% for
the typical automotive, technical, and carpet
applications and up to 6% for apparel, footwear,
and home textile yarns
