That inconsistency
led to masterbatches that included lumps and lot-to-lot
color differences.
On its manufacturing lines, the transition to Colorant
Chromatics fluoropolymer color concentrates helped
slash its scrap rate from 10% to less than 5%.

At first, they experimented with pre-colored
ABS, but the ABS parts failed the company’s
requirements for color retention after exposure
to UV light.
Due to
the commercial success of the gray and black
colors, Smart Hero plans to introduce seven
new colors made with Geon M5705 material
to expand its product line.
Using Geon M5705
material for these seven colors will save an
additional $200,000 per year.
