Those who give PET bottles a frosted-glass look for use with high-end cosmetics, personal care and other products have, until now, had to spray paint the parts to achieve this premium color effect. Now, a new masterbatch from Chroma Corporation eliminates the added painting step, and reduces time to market and cost by letting processors create a frosted look using Chroma’s color concentrate at the machine. According to the company, this is a flexible masterbatch, and can, for instance, be tinted to create the soft blue and green tones associated with vintage glass. This masterbatch also allows the addition of special effect pigments to enhance the frosted look without the flow lines, pinholes and other issues often encountered when such pigments are used with PET.
