Helping to improve sustainability over the end-
product lifecycle, these formulations offer a reduced
carbon footprint as a result of the PK base resin.
The
production of PK emits up to 61 percent less carbon
dioxide (CO2) than nylon and POM.

OnColor™ IR Sortable Black
Infrared Sortable Black for Recyclable Packaging
OnColor™ Infrared Sortable Black for Recyclable
Packaging is a black colorant created without the
addition of carbon black pigment.
In the
presence of carbon black, currently used to color
most black packaging, all the wavelengths are
absorbed and black polymers can’t be identified,
inevitably keeping black packaging out of recycling
streams at considerable cost to our environment.
