Sortable Black Colorants Black plastic can be challenging to detect by infrared sensors during the sorting process resulting in the plastic being directed to waste instead of the relevant recycled polymer stream. This is mainly due to carbon black content. These colorants originally developed for black packaging can be used for the black and dark coloration of appliance plastic parts to ensure they are recycled and not wasted.

In all aspects, they remain true to their “Designed by Snowboarding” philosophy to make riding more fun—and their newest binding entry, the Rome Black Label highback, is no exception. In creating the Black Label, Rome sought to add a premium highback to their binding collection that would be flexible and durable, providing highly responsive performance in an ultra-light, high-tech binding. THE IMPACT The injection-overmolded Polystrand composite construction in Rome’s Black Label binding is the first of its kind in the industry.
