Color Masterbatch

Color Masterbatch for PET

This color masterbatch is a precision-engineered additive specifically formulated for Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), designed to deliver vibrant, consistent, and stable coloration during the resin’s high-temperature processing. It offers exceptional compatibility with both virgin and recycled PET (rPET), making it a versatile solution for a wide range of applications from food-grade packaging to technical parts. Our formulation ensures excellent dispersion, resulting in flawless finishes that enhance product aesthetics and brand identity.

Features and Advantages

Specialized masterbatches are essential for incorporating recycled content. They can correct the yellow tint of rPET, improve its processing stability, and even use specific effects (like matte frost) to reduce the visible flaws of recycled materials. Some masterbatches are also designed to be detectable by recycling plant sorting systems (NIR compatible), ensuring they don't hinder the recycling process.
Provides outstanding thermal stability at high PET processing temperatures, preventing color degradation or yellowing. Its excellent dispersion characteristics eliminate streaks and spots, ensuring uniform color and a premium finish in both injection molding and extrusion processes.
Beyond coloring, it can be customized with functional additives like UV blockers for light protection or oxygen scavengers for extended shelf life. The product range includes formulations that are fully compliant with global food contact regulations (e.g., FDA, EU), ensuring safety for packaging applications.
Specifically engineered to work seamlessly with recycled PET (rPET), effectively masking the yellow hue of recycled content and improving its processability. This supports circular economy goals while offering a vast color palette and special effects (like clear tints, pearlescent) for diverse market needs, from beverage bottles to consumer electronics.
