In addition to increasing competitive market position, Colorsperse organic-based colorants also boost process efficiency by eliminating pigment grinding and additional quality checks, which often require multiple color corrections.
This new line incorporates a plant-based carrier system and leads to a cleaner working environment than is typical with dry powder pigments.
Seth Tomasch, general manager, PolyOne, said, “Cosmetics brands can leverage our expertise in pigment dispersions to improve their competitive advantage with greater process efficiencies and enhanced consumer appeal that expands marketplace reach.”

These new toners are formulated without heavy metal or restricted ingredients, and can be used at lower doses in comparison to alternatives like pigment and solid masterbatches.
Examples include:
• Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life and quality of food, beverages, medicine and other perishable goods through high-performance materials that require less plastic
• Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation
• Breakthrough technologies that minimize wastewater and improve the recyclability of materials and packaging across a spectrum of end uses
