Better Together: PolyOne and Clariant Masterbatch We are better together. When including the additional resources who joined from Clariant Masterbatch, our technical team has nearly doubled. Since masterbatch coloring needs to be corrected each time, the color properties of PCR change.

The materials are produced under a third-party certified ISO 13485:2016 quality management system and backed by comprehensive change control of raw materials, formulation, and manufacturing standards to enable consistent batch-to-batch quality.”
