Colour masterbatches
Colour masterbatches are concentrated blends of pigments and/or dyes in a compatible carrier. They colour the polymer throughout during processing and allow shades to be developed from a sample or colour reference, with the result also influenced by the article’s transparency and surface finish.
Properties and applications
At MM Polytrade, we combine material knowledge with coordination of colour development at the manufacturer. We work with the customer to assess the shade and its behaviour in the selected polymer, from the initial idea through to agreement for production.
Our colour solutions serve packaging, closures, consumer products, profiles and technical components. Selection connects the colour reference with the article’s transparency, thickness and finish, as well as the processing technology used.
A distinctive colour makes a product recognisable. Our team provides technical support and a direct link to the manufacturer to turn the chosen shade into a practical solution for your product range.
