Forward Looking Statements
� Changes in polymer consumption growth rates in the markets where we conduct business;
� Changes in global industry capacity or in the rate at which anticipated changes in industry capacity come online;
� Fluctuations in raw material prices, quality and supply and in energy prices and supply;
� Production outages or material costs associated with scheduled or unscheduled maintenance programs;
� Unanticipated developments that could occur with respect to contingencies such as litigation and environmental matters;
� An inability to achieve or delays in achieving or achievement of less than the anticipated financial benefit from initiatives related to working capital
reductions, cost reductions, employee productivity goals, and an inability to raise or sustain prices for products or services;
� The ability to successfully integrate acquired companies into our operations, retain the management teams of acquired companies, and retain
relationships with customers of acquired companies, including without limitation, Color Matrix Group, Inc.

If there is space on the carousel, increase the mesh count for the first white and consider using a highlight white as the last color.
Often, a white–flash–white–flash print order using a finer mesh has dramatic impact on the softness of the print and keeps the opacity of the colors.

Color not opaque.
Reformulate as high opaque color.
No space between colors.
