Light Diffusing

Parts can be tinted to various levels of strength, giving an almost frosted or hazed appearance. Generally applied to lighting applications. Transparent materials only.

Glow in the Dark

Using phosphorescent pigment to capture light energy, these effects use that energy to create a vibrant glow in the dark appearance. Several colour options available. Suitable in PE

Thermochromic

Thermochromic colours respond to changes in temperature activating a change in colour. Specific temperature ranges can be targeted to active these changes. (Some colours are specific to certain temperature ranges ) Suitable in PE

 

Pearl Finish

Pearls are used to create a high luster finish and add an extra dimension above standard colours options. Finishes vary from the very fine with exceptional hiding power and almost smooth appearance too, quite large particle size giving a scattered star type effect with minimum hiding power. All unfilled materials

Sparkle Range

Using coated spherical particles these reflect the light from all angles when sat just under the surface of a moulded part, adding extra depth especially when used in transparent base materials. Better suited to transparent materials.

Metallics

A wide range of metallic finishes are available, from smooth to very course giving the opportunity to create various metal type effect finishes to a wide range of plastics. All materials
