The hose manufacturer decided to explore other material options that would meet requirements such as excellent colorability, good surface appearance, high flow for optimal productivity, and of course, compliance with U.S.
In addition to its excellent colorability and high flow, the Versalloy solution possessed a lower specific gravity and resulted in lower scrap rates compared to the competitive TPV, providing the opportunity to reduce system costs.

The beam changes the molecular structure of the additive, causing a color change that results in a permanent marking.
Sourcing the additive as a masterbatch, often bundled with colorant, makes it easier to add to your production process.
