MILAN – PolyOne today launched a breakthrough technology for coloring polyester fiber that eliminates aqueous dyeing and its associated wastewater treatment, giving textile manufacturers increased production and greater flexibility.
ColorMatrix™ Fiber Colorant Solutions introduce late-stage color injection for the spin coloring process, and can help to transform the way safety straps, upholstery fabrics, footwear, apparel, industrial fabrics and more are manufactured.
There is significant momentum in the textile manufacturing industry toward developing sustainable solutions across the entire supply chain,” explains John Van Hulle, President, Global Color Additives and Inks, PolyOne.

Smartbatch™ Fabric FX color and additive concentrates help manufacturers design and manufacture attractive parts that appear to be covered with fabric, but without the hassle and cost of applying textiles.
Smartbatch Fabric FX concentrates can greatly simplify the manufacturing process, producing an attractive part with the appearance of fabric, but much easier to clean.
Low-scrap manufacturing

EU Regulation No 528/2012 states that cable manufacturers in Europe can only use masterbatch additives that are authorized by BPR.
In fact, no material supplier or cable manufacturer can compete in the European marketplace without this official authorization.
OnCap Aversive uses only low-concern biocidal chemicals officially authorized by the European Union, leaving cable manufacturers with no doubts about EU compliance.

Including tracers within textiles can make it possible to confirm the origin of yarns from a specified fiber manufacturer’s production stream, which in turn would support the label's claims of including recycled content.
Because they are unique to a manufacturer and product line, the confirmation of their presence in the material will substantiate the origin of the material to the specified manufacturer.
Like all Avient’s fiber concentrates (a.k.a. masterbatches), they are typically incorporated into the fibers using spin-dying technology during yarn manufacturing.
