UV Absorbers

Ultimate™ UV Absorber
Ultimate™ UV390 provides full broadband UV protection against light degradation for plastic products allowing less than 10% UV light transmission up to 395nm - the edge of the visible spectrum.

A Cost Effective Solution
Ultimate™ is supplied as a liquid dispersion which requires low addition rates, provides extremely accurate dosing and excellent consistency. By utilising only the exact amount of active ingredient required, Ultimate™ works efficiently as a highly cost-effective UV blocking solution. As a liquid dispersion, Ultimate™ enables much easier process control leading to less downtime in production. Greater levels of consistency and excellent part clarity also mean that aesthetically Ultimate™ gives superior results.

One Product: All Applications
Ultimate™ UV390 has universal application. Food, beverage, personal care and home cleaning products packaged in PET containers can be damaged by exposure to UV light. This exposure can cause the color fade and initiate degradation reactions in vitamins affecting product texture, taste and odour. Ultimate™ helps to extend shelf life and offers an ideal solution for this type of packaging application.

Injection Moulded and Extruded applications that are exposed to the outside elements such as transit crates, disposal bins and window profiles also benefit from ColorMatrix's UV absorbers to protect against light degradation.

Recycle friendly
Ultimate™ UV390 provides unparalleled clarity and no yellowing. Containers are recycle friendly showing no impact of physical performance characteristics or colour of the recycled materials.

ColorMatrix Ultimate UV ™ Blocker - Optimized Products
Use of Ultimate UV™ 390 in combination with ColorMatrix's range of colors will offer enhanced light protection into the visible range, particularly relevant to vitamin enhanced products. Protection up to 575nm is possible, whilst also maintaining transparency.
