Increasing PCR especially can be tricky, but here are some considerations for achieving those higher percentages: • Using more PCR can affect the color of your package as PCR streams can vary from region to region. Super concentrates can give greater flexibility in coloring higher levels of PCR than traditional masterbatches, and can be used in a multi- layer bottle construction We will consider the type and percentage of PCR you are using, and will also work with you on your targeted let-down ratio (LDR) and the color or special effect you want to attain.
