Masterbatch, Pigments, Liquid Colour & Plastic Additives Supplier South Africa

Industrial Black, White & Colour Masterbatches

Ferro Performance Materials have a comprehensive range of black, white, colour and additive masterbatches for use in all plastic processing applications to impart colour or performance properties in your plastic applications.

Our masterbatches have been supplied to the plastics industry for decades, supporting highly technical applications including food packaging, children’s toys, shade netting, and fibre production. We formulate specialised colour and additive masterbatches to meet application-specific requirements such as UV stabilisation, antimicrobial protection, and enhanced durability, ensuring reliable performance across diverse plastic processing environments.

Black & White Masterbatches

With a dedicated black masterbatch manufacturing plant in Vulcania, Ferro Performance Materials is one of the largest black masterbatch manufacturers in Africa. Using advanced German production technology, we produce high-quality black masterbatch engineered for demanding and critical plastic processing applications.

Our black masterbatches can be manufactured for polymer-specific use in film and sheet extrusion, pipe and profile extrusion, injection moulding and blow moulding to name a few and serve a wide range of industries including agricultural, automotive, industrial, packaging and many more.

Custom Pigment Blending & Polymer Colourants

High-Viscosity Colour Pastes for PVC & Polyurethane

Paste is a high-viscosity colourant primarily used in the PVC and polyurethane (PU) industries for colouring specialised plastic and polymer applications.

Our paste division offers a wide range of high-quality colour pastes formulated to deliver consistent dispersion, accurate colour development, and reliable performance across various specialty plastics and polymer systems:

Liquid Colour Systems & Dosing Solutions

Liquid colourants are increasingly used through the plastics industry in an expanding range of polymers and product applications.

Liquid colour is a ready-to-use colouring system made up of a liquid carrier, pigments or dyes, and additives blended into a single formulation used to colour plastics and achieve consistent plastic colouration.

Liquid colourants support higher pigment concentrations, resulting in stronger colour intensity and improved dispersion. Accurate dosing and uniform pigment distribution help maintain consistent colour quality while optimising overall colouring costs for plastic manufacturers.

Liquid colours are most often used in plastic extrusion, injection and blow moulding applications and are particularly suited for polymers such as PET, Polyolefins and PVC.
