Christopher Smith, Assistant Editor for PMMI Media Group: When it comes to implementing manufacturing changes due to changing dye regulations, Pablo Elizondo, Senior R&D Manager and Color Specialist with German chemical manufacturer Capol, gives processors two key takeaways.

“There’s two pieces of advice I would give. The first being that most changes are possible. There are few cases when it’s impossible to get something that will satisfy the customer,” Elizondo stresses. “The main piece of advice is talk to your local experts. Talk to whoever you can get your hands on to do these switches, because it is not easy necessarily, but it’s not impossible.”
