Additive Masterbatch
Allzone Trading supplies additive masterbatch to plastics processors, compounders and manufacturing plants in Toronto, the GTA, Ontario, Quebec and across Canada. Additive masterbatch delivers a functional additive in a carrier resin so the effect can be dosed accurately at the machine. Grade and specification are confirmed against supplier documentation at quotation.

Buyer intent coverage
Additive masterbatch — what it is, where it is used, how it is chosen
Additive masterbatch carries a functional additive rather than a pigment, which lets converters dose slip, anti-block, ultraviolet, antistatic, antifog, processing-aid or anti-oxidant packages accurately at the machine without handling neat chemicals. Combination grades are common because most film problems need two or three functions at once. Buyers usually describe a production symptom rather than a chemistry, and the correct concentrate is designed backwards from that symptom.
Primary uses
- Dosing functional additives accurately without powder handling
- Combining several additive functions in one addition
- Correcting film and moulding defects at the converting stage
- Adjusting a formulation without changing the resin supply
Applications
- Blown and cast film production
- Injection moulding and blow moulding
- Agricultural and greenhouse film
- Fibre, tape and non-woven production
Advantages
- Improves dosing accuracy and reproducibility compared with neat additive handling
- Reduces dust exposure and housekeeping problems on the shop floor
- Combination grades simplify inventory and reduce dosing points
Limitations to consider
- Combination packages are harder to adjust when only one function needs changing
- Carrier compatibility still governs dispersion and final part quality
- Additive interactions inside a combined concentrate must be validated on the actual line
- Addition rate and performance are established on your own line; the figures quoted in supplier literature are starting points, not a specification.
How to choose the right grade
- State the carrier polymer first — the masterbatch carrier must be compatible with your base resin
- Define the process (film, injection, blow moulding, fibre) because let-down behaviour differs by process
- Confirm the regulatory status the finished part requires before shortlisting grades
- Decide whether you need a colour match to a physical sample or to a published colour reference
- Confirm the pellet size and shape your dosing unit handles reliably
- Exact specification is confirmed against supplier documentation at quotation.
Typical grades
- Slip and anti-block grade
- Ultraviolet-protection grade
- Antistatic grade
- Antifog grade
- Processing-aid grade
- Food-contact grade where the application requires it
- Reference grade names are widely used as shorthand in enquiries. They are treated here as search language only: an equivalent is confirmed by comparing declared datasheet values and by a line trial, and no grade is presented as a drop-in replacement for another.
Comparable materials — how Additive masterbatch sits against alternatives
- Neat additive dosing at a compounding step
- Pre-compounded resin containing the additive package
- Liquid additive dosing systems
- Buyers searching for an alternative or second-source supplier should state the incumbent grade and the property they are matching, because a like-for-like comparison depends on the declared datasheet values and on line trials, not on the material name alone.
Comparable-material reference. Grade selection is confirmed at RFQ against your process.
Procurement coverage
How to specify, order and receive Additive masterbatch
Written for procurement, quality and technical buyers in Canada and the United States. No numeric price, MOQ, stock or lead-time value is published — those are confirmed per shipment in the quotation and against the confirmed batch.
How buyers specify at RFQ
- Carrier polymer and compatibility with the base resin
- Process and equipment the masterbatch is dosed into
- Target colour reference or physical sample to match
- Regulatory status required for the finished part
- Pellet size and shape the dosing equipment accepts
- Other additives already present in the formulation
Packaging options (industry-standard)
- 25 kg bag — the standard format for small and medium converters
- Octabin or jumbo / FIBC bag for higher-volume moulding and extrusion lines
- Bulk silo truck or rail hopper where the plant has compatible intake and drying
- Packaging options and available pack sizes are confirmed with each quotation.
Storage & handling
- Store sealed, dry and off the floor; moisture pick-up shows up as splay, voids and property loss
- Keep hygroscopic polymers in their original sealed packaging until they go to the dryer
- Rotate stock and record lot numbers against each production run for traceability
Documentation available
- Technical data sheet (TDS) stating the active chemistry, carrier and recommended addition range
- Safety data sheet (SDS) in the format required for Canadian import
- Certificate of analysis (COA) against the confirmed batch
- Food-contact or regulatory declaration where the converted part requires it
- Documentation is confirmed per batch at quotation; availability depends on the grade and supplier offered.

- Machine type, output rate and the processing temperature window
- End application and whether the finished part is food-contact, potable-water or outdoor
- Annual volume and expected per-shipment quantity
- Packaging format your intake and feeding system can receive
- Documentation required per shipment
- Delivery province or port of discharge
- Base resin and process the masterbatch will be let down into
- Colour reference or physical sample where a match is required
Technical & procurement detail
Where additive masterbatch is used+
Additive masterbatch delivers a functional additive in a carrier resin so the effect can be dosed accurately at the machine. It is quoted for the specific process, machine and end-application described in the enquiry, because performance depends on the processing window rather than on a single published value.
Grades are not interchangeable+
Different grades of additive masterbatch are supplied and quoted as separate specifications. A grade supplied for one process, resin system or end-use is not presented as suitable for another. State the resin, process, machine type and end-application in your enquiry so the correct grade and documentation are reviewed with the supplier.
How specifications are confirmed+
Allzone does not publish assumed purity, melt index, loading level, particle size, origin, certification, regulatory approval, packaging or price values. Grade, specification and documentation are confirmed in writing against supplier technical data sheets and safety data sheets before an order is placed.
Frequently asked questions
What grade of additive masterbatch do you supply?+
The grade and specification are confirmed at quotation against the supplier technical data sheet. No specification or certification value is published in advance.
Can I request a technical data sheet and a safety data sheet?+
Yes. Both the supplier technical data sheet and the safety data sheet for the quoted grade are provided on request and should be reviewed before purchase and use.
Do you deliver additive masterbatch across Ontario and Quebec?+
Yes. Freight is arranged across Toronto, the GTA, Ontario, Quebec and Western Canada, and the delivery method is confirmed with the quotation.
What quantities can you supply?+
Quantities are reviewed per enquiry, from single pallets to full container loads.
