ColorMatrix™ Lactra™ SX Light Blocking Additives for PET provided high-performance light blocking technology and enabled a recyclable alternative to long-life dairy packaging.
This additive is particularly suitable in packaging for ultra-high temperature (UHT) liquid dairy products, as these types of products have a longer shelf life, making them more susceptible to light-induced oxidation due to ambient storage conditions.
UHT dairy products require special packaging consideration for long ambient shelf life, and ColorMatrix™ Lactra™ SX Light Blocking Additive provided a high-performance light blocking product.
