The company said its new masterbatch is FDA-compliant for food and cosmetic packaging and is designed for high-end packaging.
Available in two styles, the masterbatches can be used with existing colours, require no tool changes, and can be seamlessly integrated with existing injection stretch blow moulding processes, the company said.
