The use of PCR material grades from the Borcycle™ M portfolio from Borealis in tandem with specifically developed formulations from the Avient OnColor™ portfolio can help achieve a desired color effect with low levels of colorant addition and good detectability in the sorting process  In addition, the market availability of PCR in light and natural tones is equally limited. Another key discovery from the study: If colorant must be added to the base material to achieve the desired color, the addition of color concentrate can be low (around 2%).

In addition to high strength and impact performance, these products also perform well with cyclical fatigue and have a boost in performance for long term creep resistance.   Additive technologies such as custom color, lubrication and UV performance enhancement are also available for further customization.  Performance Additives

Biopolymers and recycled materials can be colored using sustainable colorants and additives. Utilizing sustainable-based colorants and additives can lead to a stronger environmental story and the potential for sales to increase up to 2.5% (McKinsey & Company, 2023).  Customizing the material may include incorporating functional additives and modifiers such as fibers, foaming agents, oxygen scavengers, flame retardants, and UV blockers.
