OnColor™ NIR Sortable Colorants
Near Infrared Sortable Black and Dark Colorants for Recyclable Packaging
OnColor™ NIR Sortable Black and Dark Colorants for
recyclable packaging promotes correct sorting and
recycling of dark polymers.
This solution permits
black and dark color polymers to be detected by
near infrared (NIR) automatic sorting equipment,
enabling subsequent recycling.
Some
formuations used to color black and dark colored
packaging absorb the wavelengths so darker
polymers can’t be identified, inevitably keeping
some packaging out of recycling streams at
considerable cost to our environment.
