A bicolour collection inspired by butterflies for NEW coated abrasive opportunities
Following on from the first World of Colours collection, which introduced heavyweight papers to the world of colour, Ahlstrom continues to open up the field of customisation solutions even wider and makes them even more accessible.
Our target with this offer is to meet the promising demand for colours and :
- Increase you business success by making them even more accessible (volume, price)
- Offer more marketing combination possibilities
- Create the possibility to keep your original backing colour -so as not to disorient what can sometimes be a conservative end market – while solving through technical issues such as blotching
The Butterfly Collection is inspired by biomimicry
This discipline consists of studying nature to imitate its processes and designs. Nature is constantly adapting and has, of necessity, developed a wealth of imaginative features that can provide us with ideas for abrasive imaginative solutions.
This applies particularly to butterflies : Although decorative, their colours are mainly there to fulfil specific functions.
And just the same way, our Ultra-Coatings will create bi-couleur features to help you spread your wings.
Mimicry
Some butterflies can go unseen in broad daylight thanks to their colors...
Use this technique to mask any blotching effect and make a technical difference!
Protection
In nature certain splashes of colour serve to frighten predators, by taking them by surprise
Use this technique to generate a surprise and implement the best conductivity available on the market!
Recognition
Some Colour also allows butterflies of the same species to recognise other
Stamp your brand identity with mass-dyed and coating combinations!
