Functional products such as, for example, the tools for professionals and DIY and gardening enthusiasts, sell better if they have a colorful and attractive appearance. Up in the engine compartments design of automobiles, designers take care to convey exclusivity. With the series of Alcom Metallic compounds, albis plastic offers compounds of effect metal with their surfaces of aesthetic innovative that they support this trend and demonstrate its effectiveness in components already on the market.

With the functionality to dry already cannot be it won customers in the tough competition of the market for DIY and gardening. An ingenious and high-quality design is affecting more and more decisions of purchase of tools, is a simple electrical screwdriver or a lawn mower.

The Hybrid-Power mower of the Wolf-Garten company offers great functionality: their modern technology of rechargeable battery with reduced times of loading and high capacity, as well as its powerful engine with great strength of transmission, they deal with that the job of mowing the lawneither cordless or conventionally, becomes a pleasure. To present the innovative technology with the corresponding aspect of great quality, has developed a new design that has already been awarded the "reddot Award'.

The housing is of Alcom PP metallic silver. For the components of the same, Albis supplies to the inyectador a grain in the exact color and with the desired brightness level. The colors are not lost even under the effect of ultraviolet radiation. Therefore, it do without is additional lacquerware costly and subject to errors. Components thus fulfilled all the requirements in dimensional accuracy, resistance to deformation in hot, the color stability and absence of visible flow and Union lines.

Without of additional lacquerware, car manufacturers achieve these metallic compounds combine the high aesthetic requirements with cost reduction. In this way, clear advantages in terms of cost, logistics and handling are obtained in the interior of the vehicle. Because the Alcom Metallic are coloured in mass, are not appreciated the scratches on the plastic surface. 'Intrinsic values' of the material also forgive the small oversights and damages which may occur during the handling. This results in excellent esthetics in the long term, even with daily use.

And what is true for the interior of the vehicle, goes 'under the hood': even the engine compartment, supposedly short demanding in terms of decoration, can be revalued on a lasting basis. The spacious decks of the engine are usually black - and, therefore, rather sad - in most cases. Several manufacturers are betting even in this area by a sports design of high quality. ALBIS provides the right solution in the form of a compound metal-based polyamide colored mass, allowing empower covers an aspect of aluminium (lacquered and without the costly process of injection of 2 components) and at the same time reducing the cost of production.

Flexibility through Masterbatch

Both in the construction of vehicles and in other sectors, there is a growing trend towards these individualized designs. In line with this, there is a great diversity of wishes in terms of colors and effects. Batch sizes will continue to decline. In order to reduce costs and logistics partner for the production and storage of materials, it offers the possibility of 'autocoloración', which allows the client to perform the coloration in his factory with Masterbatch. ALBIS guarantees that all the chromatic and functional properties are perfectly conserved with a single series Alcolor Masterbatch. To this end, Albis also provides material manufacturers, if the customer so wishes.

This synergy has led, for example, to the development of a POM Masterbatch of low emission for the coloration of the company Bang & Olufsen loudspeaker covers, aimed at the dwellings of cars. The structure of mesh is injected in different colors exactly adapted to the colorful environment of the materials in the mounting position. The autocoloración with Masterbatch at the processing plant does not require a comprehensive stock-keeping and guarantees a high flexibility in the choice of colours and a very quickly in the re-equipment of the machines.
