With Fabric FX masterbatch and a textured
mold surface, manufacturers have a drop-in solution
to design novel parts that appear to be covered in
textiles.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Fabric FX can be formulated to include properties
such as UV color protection and anti-scratch
performance
• Fabric FX can be processed on standard molding
machinery
• Different matrix materials can be enhanced with
Fabric FX, including ABS, PC/ABS, PB, and unfilled
or talc-filled PP
• There is no limitation on the graining that can be
used; the fabric effect will differ depending on the
grain effect engraved in the tool
• If parts are extruded or a mold is not engraved,
final parts will have an attractive speckled
appearance, but will not be textured
TYPICAL USES
Fabric FX concentrates are suitable for any application
that could benefit from an enhanced textile-like
appearance.
Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

Cesa™ Raise Heat Stability Modifier for APET Packaging
Cesa™ Raise is a heat stability modifier specifically
designed for amorphous polyethylene terephthalate
(APET) thermoformed packaging.
The PET packaging market is experiencing
significant growth, driven by increasing
sustainability demands, higher recycling targets,
and the shift away from alternative materials
such as polystyrene (PS) or polypropylene (PP).
Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

Lastly, our design capabilities ensure that the
application is designed perfectly for the specific end use.
Our exceptional polymer scientists and design engineers are integral to their
product development process.
Design times can be less than
three days for colorants.

Switching from metal forming to injection molding
would also enable processing cost savings and
expanded design freedom.
THE IMPACT
The closure producer’s team switched to Gravi-Tech
material, and immediately logged a 35% cost savings
due to lower material and processing costs.
Finding a material that would not compromise the
premium quality provided to a leading spirits brand
was critical for the closure producer.
