As a further development of the granite effect masterbatches, Lifocolor will be presenting sandstone and cork looks at Stand 4-D16 that are ideal for a natural yet highly effective finish. These effect masterbatches can be used for polyolefins (PE, PP), engineering polymers (ABS, PMMA, TPE) and polystyrene (PS). At a minimum, they meet the requirements for approval for food contact in accordance with 10/2011 EU and in most cases FDA regulations as well, and they can be processed using common injection and extrusion techniques at temperatures of up to 280 degrees Celsius. In addition to these product innovations along the design trend of imitating natural materials in polymers, Lifocolor will be showcasing, among other things, authentic metal looks and elegant frost and multicolour effects at its stand.
