Color solutions designed for recycled plastics

Unlike virgin plastics, post-consumer recycled materials start with a natural grey base tone created by pigments from their previous use. 

With Circo® Tone, our specialists tailor color masterbatches to work with the material's natural grey base, delivering the desired shade with excellent consistency and reproducibility.

  • Higher recycled content with recycled polymers used throughout the color solution.
  • Colors optimised for recycled plastics, with pigments tailored to the natural grey base tone of post-consumer recycled materials.
  • Available as ready-colored compounds or masterbatches.
  • Greater design freedom without compromising circularity.
