What masterbatch is and what it does

Masterbatch is a pellet concentrate that adds color or a specific function to a plastic resin during processing. It is used when the process requires cleaner dosing, better dispersion, and repeatability compared to raw pigment powder.

At AGAMA we treat it as a plant-level decision: choosing a color is not enough. Resin, process, end part, expected appearance, and volume must be confirmed before recommending an option.

What problem do you need to solve?

  • Add color to a plastic resin.
  • Improve coverage or opacity.
  • Maintain uniformity across batches.
  • Simplify dosing and dispersion.

Main types of masterbatch

Each type addresses a different need. The recommendation changes depending on whether you need to cover a resin, match a shade, improve appearance, or maintain visual stability in production.

Black masterbatch

Evaluated by coverage, gloss, concentration, resin compatibility, and behavior during processing.

White masterbatch

Typically assessed by opacity, visual appearance, dosage, and the level of whiteness required for the final part.

Color masterbatch

Helps maintain visual repeatability when a consistent shade is needed in injection, extrusion, or blow molding.

Specialty masterbatch

Considered when the part requires an additional appearance, process, or performance condition beyond color.

What we review before recommending a masterbatch

Resin

We confirm whether you work with PE, PP, PVC, styrenics, or another polymer family to avoid incompatibilities.

Process

Dosing and dispersion change between injection molding, extrusion, and blow molding.

Application

A rigid part, a film, a container, or a color-approval sample each require different considerations.

For a faster quote

Share your resin, process, application, target color or physical sample, and estimated volume. With that data AGAMA can better assess compatibility before moving to pricing.

Processing methods

Masterbatch is selected with the process in mind. Each card links to the catalog so you can review available options.
