detection, to prevent off-spec waste,” continued LYB. “These tools deliver faster colour matches, tighter specifications, reduced scrap and energy use, and improved demand planning. Challenges remain around data quality, standardisation, intellectual property management, and plant-level adoption. Looking ahead, LYB expects AI to integrate lab, production and lifecycle data to automatically recommend low-footprint, compliant formulations that maintain brand colour consist- ency, using closed-loop feedback from converter operations to continuously refine performance and sustainability outcomes.” Masterbatch producer Ampacet launched a Digital Design Library that allows designers to integrate the company’s materials into three-dimen- sional visualisations of their products in KeyShot’s design-to-market software. The library includes colours and effects in different resin types and, in some cases, for different processes. Mercedes Landazuri, Ampacet Market Insight


Manager, said: “By integrating our advanced colour and effects solutions with KeyShot’s rendering capabilities, we’re putting our innovative materials directly into the hands of designers, enabling them


to push creative boundaries while accelerating speed-to-market. This resource reflects our commitment to innovation and collaboration.” Avient’s PCR Color Prediction Service is a digital


tool that is globally available for recycled materials. The tool helps illustrate the colour possibilities or limitations of PCR containing polyolefins or rPET and can help simplify the overall decision-making process for brand owners and technical colorists as well as shorten the time-to-launch of new product ranges, the company said.
