As with black polymer products and packaging, problems can also arise in the recycling process with silver-coloured products and packaging. Due to their composition, certain silver colours cannot be detected via near-infrared (NIR) and correctly sorted which make them difficult to recycle. Lifocolor has developed new solutions in collaboration with Eckart, a leading manufacturer of metallic effect and pearlescent pigments. Our silver and metallic masterbatches for your beauty & care polymer products or packaging ensure successful Design4Recycling.
