Product Description
Cotene™ Stone Effect polyethylenese are unique combinations of compounded Cotene™ 9048 powder, which have been designed to virtually eliminate the masking and swirling phenomenon associated with 'traditional' blended colours. Tight quality control procedures ensure batch to batch blend consistency and moulding appearance.

Cotene™ Stone Effect colours can be processed in a similar manner to conventional Cotene™ 9048. Some extension of cycle times in conjunction with lower processing temperatures and lower rotation speeds may be needed to achieve an optimal effect.

Food Contact Regulations:
Cotene™ 9048-251E (Marble) and 9048/865SE (White Marble) are suitable food contact applications and comply with the Australian standard AS2070 parts 1,6 and 8. The other three grades comply with the Australian standard as2070 parts 1 and 8. For further details please contact your Account Manager.
