Masterbatch Production

Once an order is placed it is put into our production schedule to ensure that the required delivery date is met.

The first stage of production is to weigh, mix and pre-blend the formula. We ensure a thorough clean down between mixes and all pigments are kept in separate containers to stop any contamination.

The extruder is given a full clean before processing, again to ensure no contamination is present once production is running. Production is run through our extruders ensuring all customer specifications are met. All of our machines are the very latest in high speed, high torque, co-rotating, twin-screw technology and this ensures excellent dispersion as well as being an efficient production method. In addition to this, because we have the same design machines throughout our factory, we can ensure greater consistency as we can make any product on any machine to the same specification.

Quality checks are performed to ensure colour, strength and dispersion. The masterbatch is then run off into bags and labelled. A final visual check is done before for the product is sent.
