If a brand owner or designer is looking into colors for a new product launch, ColorForward™, an annual color and effect trend forecast for the plastics industry, can help by providing insights into future color trends and translating them into plastic solutions.
Each color concept is a combination of color, special effects (if used), and polymers that are carefully selected on-site at one of Avient’s ColorWorks Design and Technology Centers.
For example, they can illustrate how color concepts can be transferred to other plastics (resins) while keeping polymer properties in mind.
