Clariant adds orange shades to designers' color spectrum

MUTTENZ- Clariant added a new set of striking and economical color solution to designers' creative palettes via its orange pigment PV Fast Orange HGR. The mid-shade orange can be a shading pigment for customers wanting to create unique full orange shades with eye-catching appeal. PV Fast Orange HGR can be used to achieve product differentiation for consumer goods and packaging applications, such as caps and closures and household containers, based on polyolefins and a wide variety of engineering polymers, including polycarbonate, polystyrene and thermoplastic rubbers.

The pigment has high light and heat stability also at low concentrations, which allows excellent cost/performance ratio. The pigment is suitable for applications where low warpage is needed. It is also compliant with EU Regulation 10/2011.

PV Fast Orange HGR is manufactured at Clariant’s Azo Pigment and Pigment Preparation facility in Roha, India. Proximity to customers in India and China, two markets with high demand for color solutions, reflects Clariant’s commitment to support emerging markets.
