Gabriel-Chemie’s NIR-detectable masterbatch

Gabriel-Chemie is one of Europe's leading masterbatch producers after almost 70 years of existence. Sustainability has therefore become a strong focus for Gabriel-Chemie during the last years. Responsibility and awareness of resource-saving processes pave the way for the group into the future. 

Gabriel-Chemie designed a NIR-detectable and sortable thermoplastic masterbatch to increase the amount of black and dark-colored plastics recycled and meet the increased demand of the end customers in NIR black masterbatches. Next to that, this will support companies with initiatives, such as circular economy and recycling, and their brand identity.

"Our masterbatch solutions are the perfect choice for plastics that intend to be reused or recycled and can be produced applying the ISO norms 9001,14000 (environmental management), 22000 (food contact materials), and even 13485 (medical devices). By offering NIR-detectable masterbatches, we are going a strong-paced step towards increasing environmental sustainability" – Diego A. Karpeles, Corporate Brand Managers at Gabriel-Chemie.
