For some major brands seeking to achieve their Sustainabiity targets, Colour Consolidation can offer excellent potential, especially across large production runs. Plastek UK has recently been working with an international brand to help reduce the number of colourways across a particular product range.
Since reducing colour changes on the production line saves time and energy, and inevitably reduces waste, a relatively simple change such as this can produce a valuable long-term effect on a product’s overall carbon footprint. However, most customers will want to assess the benefit before committing to the change, and our project teams are the key to an accurate calculation of the likely improvement.
