StarDust™ is a new series of color concentrates from Pawtucket, Rhode Island-based Teknor Apex Company, a custom compounder of plastics. The concentrates yield a sparkling effect produced by glinting flakes within the color itself, providing a new, distinctive and fun option for product differentiation. The new concentrates are available in all standard colors and are supplied in pellet form for injection molding and as powdered dry color for rotational molding. The powder form is the first sparkle-effect rotomolding colorant. Teknor Apex recommends StarDust™ concentrates for consumer products such as toys, housewares, dust bins, waste bins, storage bins and other items where shelf appeal or visual enjoyment are key values. Rotomolding applications include kayaks, outdoor furniture, coolers and sporting equipment. For more information, visit www.teknorapex.com.
