Additionally, they provide robust protection against UV-induced degradation, ensuring your products maintain their color and integrity over time. Cesa™ bright masterbatches enhance the long-term white appearance of plastic products by converting UV radiation into a bluish light, providing better brightness retention than topical optical brighteners.

Can you color TPEs? Can you color TPEs? Black, blue and clear are popular options, but there is almost no limitation on color when it comes to using TPEs.
