Colorants - Masterbatch Products
Product Description
Colorants (Masterbatch)
Colorants used in polyurethane systems are high-color-intensity and high-fluidity coloring systems made from the combination of pigments and carrier phases. These systems are formulated to provide excellent processability, superior dispersion quality, and long-term color stability. Because they are phthalate-free, they are also suitable for environmentally conscious and health-sensitive production requirements. As polyurethane technologies advance, the demand for more precise and more stable color solutions continues to grow—and masterbatch colorants play a fundamental role in meeting these expectations.
Masterbatch colorants ensure consistent, repeatable quality across various applications, from flexible foams to rigid polyurethane systems, and from elastomers to advanced molded parts. Their ability to disperse evenly within the polymer matrix enables manufacturers to achieve vibrant, flawless, and uniform coloration, regardless of production scale or complexity.
Colorants (Masterbatch) – High-Performance Color Solutions
Our masterbatch colorants, designed specifically for plastics and polyurethane systems, offer superior color performance with high pigment density and excellent flow properties, adding value to your production processes. They are engineered to integrate seamlessly into polyurethane formulations without altering foam structure, reaction profiles, or mechanical properties. This ensures that manufacturers can achieve brilliant color results without compromising the physical integrity or performance of their end products.
Pluskim’s masterbatch portfolio includes both standard and customized colorants. Whether you need glossy, matte, pastel, metallic, fluorescent, or deep-saturated tones, our solutions are tailored to deliver maximum visual impact. Additionally, the chemical resistance, UV stability, and thermal stability of these colorants make them ideal for demanding industrial environments where consistency and durability are essential.
Why Choose Our Colorants?
High Color Intensity
Our masterbatch colorants are formulated with high concentrations of premium-quality pigments. This allows manufacturers to achieve maximum color impact with minimal usage. High color intensity reduces overall material consumption and contributes to cost efficiency in mass production. At the same time, the pigments retain their vibrancy over time, resisting fading, yellowing, or color shifts—even under exposure to temperature changes, sunlight, or chemical cleaning procedures.
High-intensity colorants are especially crucial in industries where brand consistency or precise shade accuracy is required, such as automotive parts, flexible foam products, molded polyurethane systems, footwear components, and decorative materials.
Excellent Dispersion
Excellent dispersion is essential for achieving uniform and flawless coloration, especially in polyurethane foams where cell structure must remain stable. Our colorants are engineered to integrate smoothly into the polyol or isocyanate phases, helping maintain uniform distribution of pigments throughout the entire mixture.
This results in:
Homogeneous foam cell structure
Reduced risk of streaking or blotching
Enhanced surface appearance
Improved mechanical consistency
Whether used in spray polyurethane systems, cold-cure molded foams, elastomers, or rigid panels, the superior dispersion quality ensures both aesthetic and functional advantages.
Phthalate-Free
All of our masterbatch solutions are phthalate-free, supporting environmentally responsible manufacturing practices. This makes them suitable for applications that require compliance with global health and safety regulations, including:
Consumer goods
Furniture and bedding
Automotive interiors
Industrial components
Building materials
Being phthalate-free also ensures compatibility with green building standards and eco-certification programs. As sustainability becomes increasingly important, using safe and compliant colorants helps manufacturers meet market demands while maintaining high performance.
Wide Range of Applications
Our colorants are suitable for a broad range of industries thanks to their versatility and adaptability. They can be used in:
Flexible polyurethane foam
Rigid polyurethane insulation materials
Elastomers and integral skin foam
Shoe soles and footwear polyurethanes
Automotive interior components
Polyurethane adhesives and coatings
Plastic parts and molded products
Because the masterbatch solutions do not alter the curing behavior or chemistry of polyurethane systems, they can be effortlessly incorporated into both high-pressure and low-pressure manufacturing processes.
Technical Highlights of Our Masterbatch Solutions
To further support high-performance production, our colorants offer several technical advantages:
Thermal Stability
With excellent resistance to high temperatures, the pigments retain their color quality even in fast-reacting systems or in demanding production lines such as automotive seating or insulation panel manufacturing.
UV Resistance
For outdoor applications such as EPDM surfaces, artificial turf binders, and exterior building materials, UV resistance ensures stable color performance over extended exposure to sunlight.
Chemical Resistance
Colorants resist degradation when exposed to oils, cleaning agents, environmental pollutants, and industrial chemicals.
Flowability
High fluidity allows the colorant to be dosed easily and mixed evenly, making the production process smoother and more consistent.
Applications Across Industries
Colorants play a key role in various industrial and commercial applications:
Automotive Sector: for dashboards, seating foams, steering wheels, and interior trim
Furniture & Bedding: achieving aesthetic finishes in foam cushioning
Construction: adding color to insulating panels, sealants, and coatings
Footwear: providing rich coloration in PU soles, insoles, and components
Consumer Goods: enhancing the appearance of molded polyurethane items
Industrial Foams: ensuring uniform coloration in safety equipment and tools
Their adaptability makes them an essential component in virtually every industry using polyurethane.
Conclusion
Masterbatch colorants are an essential part of modern polyurethane and plastic manufacturing, offering unmatched color intensity, superior dispersion, environmental safety, and wide application versatility. Pluskim’s high-performance colorant systems are engineered to deliver stable, vibrant, and reliable coloration without compromising the physical or chemical properties of polyurethane systems.
