ColorMatrix™ Lactra™ Four, One & Zero Low Inorganic and TiO2 Light Blocking Additive Solutions for PET Dairy & Dairy-Alternative Packaging ColorMatrix™ Lactra™ is a range of high-performance light blocking additive solutions for PET dairy and dairy-alternative packaging. WHY DAIRY PRODUCTS REQUIRE PROTECTION FROM LIGHT Certain components of dairy and dairy alternative products are susceptible to light-induced oxidation. TECHNOLOGY BENEFITS • Improved light blocking performance up to 99.9% at 550nm and 700nm • Brighter whiteness L* >90 even in thin wall sections (0.21mm) • Plug & go solution—processes similar to virgin PET • Process with standard PET grades and rPET • Reduces equipment wear and tear • TiO2 content of

TRILLIANT™ XR Thermoplastics for Radiation Shielding Trilliant™ XR thermoplastic solutions provide a radiation-shielding alternative to the use of lead in healthcare imaging equipment. Trilliant XR radiation shielding thermoplastics are excellent alternatives to lead. By incorporating this more sustainable alternative, organizations can reduce or minimize the costly record management and reporting requirements for working with lead.

They offer a more sustainable alternative to density modified grades based on prime/virgin polymers. They help to reduce product carbon footprint compared to fossil feedstock alternatives, reduce waste, and support the circular economy.
