MAKING PLASTICS ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY
First In Colours, Incorporated (FIC) is the first company in the Philippines to provide the local plastics industry with custom designed and formulated dry colorants, color masterbatches, additives and engineered polymers for a wide range of applications.
Over the years, FIC has been investing on the establishment of state-of-the-art manufacturing and research and development facilities to satisfy the growing and ever evolving needs of the plastics industry. One such pressing need is for the industry to heed society’s cry for environment-friendly products. In particular, the elimination of the widespread use of disposable plastic bags for packaging is a favorite of environmentalists. In this regard, FIC has developed aprogram to develop products that will make plastics environment-friendly by making them biodegradable. There are two FIC products that are now commercially available and sold to the plastic manufacturers: BIOMATE™ and BIO-PLAST™.
