The Rise of Non-Carbon Black Solutions in Plastic Packaging
The recycling of black plastics has long been hindered by the use of Carbon Black pigments, which absorb near-infrared (NIR) light, rendering these materials invisible to sorting technologies. This challenge results in significant environmental and economic inefficiencies, as valuable plastics often bypass recycling and end up in landfills. However, the introduction of "Black-CF" by Caps & Closures marks a groundbreaking advancement. This innovative non-carbon black masterbatch is detectable by NIR technology while retaining the deep, rich black colour indistinguishable from traditional Carbon Black. Black-CF promises to enhance recyclability, reduce waste, and support the industry's move towards more sustainable practices.
