With dope-dyeing, the colorant is in the form of concentrate pellets added to the polymer pellets during the extrusion and melting process.

CUSTOM COLORS Our pilot spinning plants are capable of producing a full range of yarn counts, to match custom colors and offer bespoke color options. All information relevant to the first colorant batch is archived and stored for the life of the color. The extruder is never contaminated with color which translates into faster, more efficient color changeovers that make low volume and custom color production a reality.

We also offer compounds and special services such as custom color design or combination concentrates containing color and additive and pre-colored solutions. Colorant Chromatics color concentrates and pre-colored solutions are based on resins from the world’s leading suppliers. COLORING PTFE/FEP DIP COATING Colorant Chromatics Inks can also be used to color aqueous PTFE or FEP dispersions for full-coverage coatings of wire & cable by dip coating applications.
