LIFOCOLOR: Turn Conventional Plastic into a Unique Product with Holographic Masterbatches
How Holographic Masterbatches Enhance the Value of Plastic Products?
In a competitive market where not only functionality but also appearance plays a decisive role, design becomes a key sales tool. Holographic masterbatches enable plastic manufacturers to achieve a visual effect that captures attention, significantly enhancing the perceived value of a product. Even a standard plastic item can be transformed into an exceptional and desirable design piece through the addition of shimmering and color-shifting effects.
Use of Glitter Pigments in the Plastics Industry
Pigments are particularly effective in transparent and translucent applications, where their depth and sparkling effect can be fully appreciated. Light reflected at different angles creates a captivating visual phenomenon — the so-called holographic play of colors. These effects are especially popular in the production of summer and winter sports accessories, toys and children's products, leisure and household items, garden products, as well as cosmetic packaging and other products intended for illuminated retail displays.
