PET
PET in its natural state is a colorless, semi-crystalline resin used for synthetic fibres, bottles and sheetl applications. PET is strong, lightweight, impact-resistant polymer and shows good barrier performance for gas, alchohol and solvents. PET is 4th most produced polymer after PE, PP and PVC.
Esthetic Colors
Color is one of the most critical visual aspects of your design. It is used to differentiate yourself on the shelf, to convey a message, to follow a color trend, to create a certain association or atmosphere. Over the years, we have developed a full palette of standard and customized esthetic colors in liquid, micro-granule and granule format. Based on your polymer and requirements we can design any transparent, translucent or opaque color.

HOLCOPET 263 serie is a liquid colorant that enables extreme low dosing for transparant colors and provides significant economic advantages compared to masterbatch. Quick color release results in excellent distribution of colorant and additive with dosing levels starting from 0,02% upto 1% maximum. HOLCOPET is thermally stable so it will not burn during the process and you won’t experience problems with “black spots” in your preforms, bottles or sheet.

HOLCOPEARL® 87 serie is a highly dispersed granule (2,5 mm) based on bio wax & polymeric carrier. Low melting point (240°C) offers smooth processing, uniform colouring and lower dosing levels compared to masterbatches. Ideal solution for (opaque) colors with dosing levels starting from 0,2% upto 5% maximum.
Functional Colors
Beyond the visual aspect, functional colors serve a purpose. Protection, longer shelf-life and recyclability are all technical aspects to consider during design. We have decades of experience to help you select the best options to improve and protect your product. Based on your polymer and requirements we can design any functional color in liquid, micro-granule and granule format.
Additives
Additives are used to improve polymer properties and processing. Functionality, energy use during production, recyclability, taste protection and prolonging shelf-life are all technical aspects to consider during design. We have decades of experience to help you select the best options to improve and protect your product. Our additives can be used in combination with color to enable combination of desired effect in the final application. We also offer a tolling service for customers who wish to encapsulate their own additives using our advanced encapsulation technology. Based on your polymer and requirements we can supply our additives in liquid, micro-granule and granule format.
Visual Effects
We have a wide range of special effects which are suitable for thermoplastics, thermosets, elastomer and coatings. These ranges can be used in combination with color to enable combination of desired effect in the final application. Over the years, we have developed a full palette of standard and customized visual effects. Please talk to us about your special requests or new ideas.
