Produced under rigorous cGMP and medical manufacturing protocols, the new amber color concentrates are made in three dedicated EN ISO 13485-2016 registered facilities using only medical-grade ingredients. To support customers’ Device Master File submission for healthcare materials, Avient has developed and submitted a type III Drug Master File (FDA) for these colorants. Avient constantly monitors the evolution of regulations in the healthcare industry and develops products to help customers comply with them well before they come into effect,” said Beate Treffler, market development manager EMEA, Color and Additives, at Avient.

The comprehensive portfolio covers color concentrates, manufacturing and production services, crosslinked polyethylene, halogen-free formulations, and other specialty materials for this market. Colorant Chromatics™ Cross-Linkable Formulations include fluoropolymers and high-performance polymers with high temperature resistance and superior cut-through resistance, abrasion resistance, and mechanical toughness. Colorant Chromatics™ Chemical & Physical Foaming Additives enhance electrical properties, reduce cable weight, and improve cost effectiveness.

In addition, GOBIE chose OnColor™ colorants to differentiate its creative and sustainable product line. These FDA-compliant colorants were used to produce fresh and bright hues, pairing perfectly with the TPE material to avoid bonding problems that GOBIE had experienced previously with other materials.

Texture, Color, and Special Effects TPEs are available in a wide array of colors and effects that can amplify their sensory qualities and contribute to brand identity and shelf appeal. TPEs can be customized with bright colors and effects, such as metallics, sparkles, and pearlescents, and various shine levels, including eye-catching high gloss, which can provide a high-tech or high-fashion aesthetic.
