Celebrating 20 Years of Success

On November 23, 2011, in Company News, by admin

November 2011 marks the 20th anniversary of Prisma Colour Limited which remains an independent and privately owned business.

Founded this month in 1991 Prisma Colour began manufacturing with two employees from a small lock up in Padfield near Glossop.

Prisma Colour now employs over fifty people at three locations with sales to fifteen countries and our export activities continue assisted through selected distributors for key products in targeted markets.

Approaching the end of a successful 2011, Prisma Colour looks forward to another twenty years of growth.

 

Prisma Colour would like to announce their collaboration with Eigenmann & Veronelli in the Italian market.  We are delighted to have them onboard as our local representative working with us to ascertain and develop the Italian market for our rubber masterbatch and silicone gum masterbatch.

Eigenmann & Veronelli are a long standing specialities distributor who have impressed us with their commitment, organisation and market knowledge. We wish them the best of luck in the coming months and are looking forward to working with them

If you are interested in distributing Prisma Colour products in your region then please contact Will Riches: Cell: +44 (0) 7833431515 or Emailwill@prisamcolour.com.

Given the demand or PET bottles to have a high-end frosted glass look, Prisma Colour would like to announce a new frosted-effect masterbatch to their additive range.

Used either as a natural or in conjunction with transparent colours, the effect given is normally only achieved by secondary more expensive options such as spraying.

Our masterbatch gives a similar effect to etched glass which could be used in packaging for cosmetics, alcohol and other top of the range products.

Prisma Colour now offer laboratory simulation of the effects of outdoor weathering. This service can be used to benchmark your products for cost effectiveness, improved quality and to give you an edge over your competitors.

Are your colours optimised for their application?
Prisma can weather your products to ensure they are the most cost effective formulations for the end application.

Are you looking for quality guarantees and approvals?
Prisma can provide tangible evidence that your products will perform as advertised and can perform a range of ASTM, ISO and DIN tests.

Are you looking for an edge on the competition?
Comparative testing can compare the actual performance of a variety of products from different suppliers.

We have already acquired test data on the performance of modern organic pigments against traditional heavy metal based products.  If you are looking to replace these pigments in your products, the Prisma Colour are your ideal partner.

As a company, we are presently looking at Cadmium replacement options in light of the latest regulation which will severely limit the use of this pigment type.

Please contact us or call +44 (0)1457 856 505 to learn more.

Since its launch earlier in this year, our new weathering test chamber has proven a real success, improving our integrity within the industry, whilst increasing profitability for our customers.

New Lab Extruder

On February 22, 2011, in Company News, Products, by admin

As part of our ongoing expansion and investment Prisma colour have just invested in a 16mm twin screw extruder.  The machine has been installed in our thermoplastic lab alongside our existing twin screw.  Both machines are dedicated to producing masterbatch samples for customer trials.  This investment will improve our ability to respond to market requests.

The machine is fitted with an interchanging strand line and blown film line attachment so as well as increasing our sample capacity we will be able to better serve thin wall applications such as tape and film.
