Masterbatches are concentrated mixtures of pigments, additives, or other components encapsulated into a carrier resin and used to color or enhance the properties of plastics during manufacturing. Typically added in small amounts to raw polymers, they provide benefits such as improved UV resistance, strength, appearance, and processability while ensuring consistent dispersion. Masterbatches are available in various types, including color masterbatches (like black, white, and pearl), additive masterbatches (such as UV stabilizers and antioxidants), filler masterbatches (like calcium and talc), and functional modifiers. Widely used in industries like packaging, automotive, electronics, and consumer goods, masterbatches offer a clean, efficient, and cost-effective way to customize plastic materials.

Black masterbatch is widely used across multiple industries for its coloring, UV protection, and durability properties. It plays a key role in the agricultural sector for mulch films and irrigation pipes, the packaging industry for garbage bags and shopping bags, and the automotive industry for interior and exterior plastic parts.
White masterbatch, rich in Titanium Dioxide, provides high opacity and brightness, making it ideal for packaging films and containers, especially in the food and beverage sector. It is also used in cosmetic packaging such as tubes, household goods, and medical disposables.
Colour masterbatch allows for vibrant and custom coloring of plastics, used widely in consumer goods like toys and electronics, automotive interiors, textile products, and furniture manufacturing. Its flexibility in shades and effects makes it a favorite in decorative packaging as well.
Pearl masterbatch creates a shiny, pearlescent effect on plastic surfaces. It is primarily used in the cosmetics industry for attractive bottle designs, in luxury packaging for premium items, and in decorative household goods where appearance is important.
Metallic masterbatch imparts a metal-like finish to plastic products, often replacing costly metallic coatings. It is popular in automotive interiors, consumer electronics, high-end packaging, and appliance components.
