Omnicolor colorants are generally
selected because of their versatility
where a wide range of polymers are
processed and their availability for
sale in small quantities.
They will withstand the drying
temperatures of most polymers that
require drying before processing,
such as ABS and nylon.

The new Cesa tracer concentrates are currently available for polyester and polyamide (nylon) fibers, including recycled grades.
In the case of recycled grades, fiber manufacturers can use the tracer concentrate pellets earlier in the production process by adding them to the recycled polymer content (e.g., polyethylene terephthalate bottle flakes or shredded nylon fishing nets) prior to being extruded into pellets.
