A Journey through Sun Chemical’s Masterbatch Solutions
Navigating the complex landscape of masterbatch solutions requires a partner who understands every step of the journey – from conception to final delivery. Sun Chemical ensures that every customer experiences the full breadth of technical expertise, advanced production capabilities, and customer-oriented solutions. Discover a typical “masterbatch journey,” showcasing how Sun Chemical brings brand owner visions to life with precision, flexibility, and unmatched quality. The journey begins with understanding the unique needs of customers seeking specialized masterbatches – whether for automotive, pack- aging, or consumer products. Close collaboration with Sun Chemical’s experienced sales and tech- nical teams from the start allows for a deep dive into customer-specific specifications, discussing everything from color requirements to functional additives. This tailored approach ensures align- ment with customer goals and sets the foundation for a successful partnership. Once requirements are defined, Sun Chemical’s
Masterbatch Competence Center takes over. Here, concepts are transformed into tangible solutions, developing customized masterbatch formulations tailored to precise application needs. The Com- petence Center’s capabilities – from small-batch testing to prototype production – allows custom- ers to evaluate new formulations. These advanced testing facilities, such as film-blowing and injection molding systems, simulate real-world applications, ensuring every product meets customer standards. After the prototyping phase at the Master- batch Competence Center, it is time to move into full-scale production.
Sun Chemical’s recently expanded Mixing Plant is at the heart of the mixing step, bringing together cutting-edge technology, automation, and a commitment to energy efficiency. Covering approximately 1,700 square meters of floor space, the plant has been designed to meet the highest demands of modern masterbatch production, supporting both high-volume orders and just-in- time (JIT) manufacturing.
The Mixing Plant has high-speed mixers that ensure reproducible quality, precisely controlling the dispersion and homogeneity of pigments, ad- ditives, and polymers. This consistency is vital for delivering the high-performance masterbatches that customers rely on. To keep up with customer dynamic needs, the Mixing Plant incorporates a KANBAN storage system that optimizes the supply of materials

to the production line. This system ensures that materials are readily available when needed, min- imizing overstocking while maintaining seamless production flow.
With 16 dedicated extrusion lines and the capa- bility to produce batches ranging from 100 kg to 50 tons, Sun Chemical meets the demand for small and large orders. Sun Chemical’s production facil- ities employs side feed dosing, high-temperature extrusion, and full batch traceability through RFID, maintaining consistent quality across all orders. Quality assurance from raw materials to the final product is integral at every production stage. Sun Chemical’s Masterbatch Competence Center conducts rigorous QC checks using state-of-the- art equipment, including FTIR (fourier transform infrared spectroscopy) and MVR (melt volume rate) determination. This ensures that each batch meets precise color, consistency, and performance specifications.
Quality control and the delivery of the master-
batches ordered are only part of the final step. The customer’s journey continues after deliv- ery. Sun Chemical stands for a partnership beyond the product, which means its team provides ro- bust after-sales support, assisting with technical inquiries, product adjustments, or process opti- mizations. Whether it is recommending new for- mulations based on evolving industry standards or providing insights on regulatory compliance, experts remain accessible, positioning Sun Chemi- cal as a long-term partner in customer success. By aligning resources and expertise with cus- tomers, Sun Chemical stands out as more than just a supplier – it is a trusted partner in achieving excellence. From concept to delivery and beyond, Sun Chemical’s commitment to quality, innovation, and tailored solutions empowers customers to confidently push the boundaries of what’s possible no matter their industry. Together, Sun Chemical and its customers are meeting today’s demands and shaping the future of masterbatch solutions.
