ColorMatrix™ Ultimate™ UV390R Light Barrier UV absorbing additive technology created for improved recyclability.

Discover the benefits UV light blockers offer for PET beverage packaging Effective UV light blocking additive technology optimizes PET container performance to provide greater protection for UV-sensitive beverages. With UV protection, formulators have more flexibility to use UV sensitive ingredients and not rely on the formulation alone to be UV-stable.

ColorMatrix™ Ultimate™ UV390R is a new ultraviolet (UV) absorbing additive technology suitable for both virgin and recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET) that allows less than 10% UV light transmission up to 395 nm and helps achieve improved bottle blowing with enhanced recyclability features, including less rPET yellowing.  

Using recycled content in the formulations can impact colorability and/or surface aesthetics, ultimately influencing material choices made during the design phase. Ultimately, choosing the right solution depends on your sustainable goals and aesthetic flexibility.
