Colour Masterbatch
Custom shades developed and matched to your reference, supplied for a range of polymers and plastic processes.
Overview
What it is and where it fits.
Colour masterbatch carries pigment in a concentrated form within a carrier polymer, so the shade disperses evenly through your material during processing.
Our work usually begins with a shade reference and the details of your application. From there we develop and match the colour, then supply it in the quantity you need.
Colour development and shade matching are handled as part of the supply relationship, with continued support as your requirements change.

Questions
Frequently asked.
- What is colour masterbatch?
- Colour masterbatch is a concentrated blend of pigment in a carrier polymer, added to natural polymer during processing so the finished part carries the required shade without handling loose pigment.
- Can you develop a custom shade?
- Yes. Custom colour development and shade matching are part of our service. Share your reference sample or shade requirement along with the polymer and process you use.
- What do you need from me to start?
- Your base polymer, the process you run, the shade reference you are working towards, the end application, and the quantity you require.
- Do you supply across India?
- Yes. THAKUR INDUSTRIES is based in Nagpur, Maharashtra and supplies customers across India.
