			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Plastics and Rubber Weekly is a magazine featuring the latest news and information for the global plastic industry</strong>, with special emphasis on the United Kingdom&#8217;s plastics and rubber industries. Here is an article featured in the February issue of Plastics and Rubber Weekly, titled Prisma Colour marks 20th anniversary;</p>
<h3>Prisma Colour marks 20th anniversary</h3>
<p>Founded in November 1991, the company now employs more than 50 people at three locations, selling to 15 countries. It has invested in people as well as machinery &#8211; graduate level technicians have been recruited into the technical support teams, demonstrating the company&#8217;s commitment to quality and innovation.</p>
<p>Since 2009, the company&#8217;s focus on developing a sustainable export market has led to the selection of highly motivated, dedicated distributors to represent Prisma across Europe. This trend is set to continue with an ongoing project to increase global coverage. Further focused and specialised distributors will be appointed for key regions such as Russia, the United States and Turkey.</p>
<p>Export manager Will Riches tells PRW: &#8220;We never lose sight of the fact that our customers require quality, consistency and a competitive price to ensure their success. Having had a very successful 2011, Prisma Colour looks forward to another twenty years of growth.&#8221;</p>

<p>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.</p>

<p>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.</p>
<p><strong>Are your colours optimised for their application?</strong><br />
Prisma can weather your products to ensure they are the most cost effective formulations for the end application.</p>
<p><strong>Are you looking for quality guarantees and approvals?</strong><br />
Prisma can provide tangible evidence that your products will perform as advertised and can perform a range of ASTM, ISO and DIN tests.</p>
<p><strong>Are you looking for an edge on the competition?</strong><br />
Comparative testing can compare the actual performance of a variety of products from different suppliers.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>Please <a href="http://www.prismacolour.com/contact.html">contact us </a>or call <strong>+44 (0)1457 856 505</strong> to learn more.</p>
<p>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.</p>
