Masterbatch and additive solutions for efficient and sustainable production

Efficiency and sustainability now go hand in hand in the polymer industry. For manufacturers facing increasing demands for quality, reduced waste, and higher recycled content, the right material choice is essential.

Esvama supports this through masterbatch and additive solutions that improve process stability, lower energy use, and enable higher productivity with reduced environmental impact.

What masterbatches do

A masterbatch is a small plastic pellet containing pigments or additives, mixed into polymers during processing. It provides colour, protection, and better processing behaviour.

Typical additives include:

  • Black / White / Colour Masterbatch – Highly pigmented and UV-stabilised colour solutions compatible with common polymers like PE, PP, PS, and PET. Designed for consistent colour, durability, and easy processing in films, containers, automotive parts, and injection-moulded products.
  • Slip Agents (S) – Reduce surface friction to make films unwind smoothly and moulded parts release easily. Improve handling in films, bags, and consumer packaging applications.
  • Antioxidants (AO) – Protect polymers from heat and oxidation during processing and throughout product life, helping maintain strength, appearance, and performance over time.
  • Antiblock Agents (AB) – Prevent plastic film layers from sticking together while maintaining transparency and surface clarity. Ideal for packaging, agricultural films, and protective sheets.

The result is consistent quality, less waste, and fewer production stops – saving both time and energy.

Stable and sustainable production

Esvama’s additive solutions also make recycled plastics more stable and easier to process. By improving melt flow and heat resistance, they allow higher use of recycled content without compromising performance or speed. At the same time, smoother material flow reduces energy demand, lowering the overall carbon footprint.
