Color Masterbatches
Colour masterbatches are concentrated pigment dispersions in a carrier resin, supplied as pellets and let down into a base polymer during moulding or extrusion to colour the finished article. They let converters achieve consistent, reproducible shades without handling raw pigment powders, and serve films, bottles, caps and closures, fibres, pipes, sheet, and injection-moulded products.
Grades are framed by colour type (standard stock shade or custom-matched to a Pantone or RAL reference), pigment chemistry (organic vs inorganic, governing opacity, tinting strength, and light-fastness), carrier resin (PE, PP, PS, ABS, PET, or a universal carrier chosen for compatibility with the base polymer), and recommended let-down ratio (commonly around 1-5%). White and black masterbatches are framed by TiO2 and carbon-black loading. Buyers also specify heat and light stability, food-contact suitability, and migration behaviour.
Packaging is generally 25 kg bags, cartons, or FIBC for bulk; storage parameters appear as specification notes on the technical data sheet rather than handling instructions.
For EU import, REACH framing for the pigments, food-contact declarations referenced to EU 10/2011 and heavy-metal limits (e.g. EN 71-3 framing for toys where relevant), RoHS, and SDS are coordinated where required; SABER/SASO routing is arranged for Saudi Arabia. HS code is provided on documentation.
Himalay's verified manufacturer and exporter partners supply colour masterbatches with CoA per batch, SDS, food-contact and heavy-metal declarations coordinated where required, REACH/CLP compliance for EU, GHS labelling, and SABER for Saudi Arabia handled as part of the standard order flow.
