How a Professional Colour Matching Service Saves Manufacturers Time, Cost, and Waste

In plastics manufacturing, colour isn’t just a design choice, it’s a brand requirement. But achieving consistent, repeatable colour is one of the toughest challenges in plastic processing. That’s where a professional colour matching service comes in.

The Cost of Poor Colour Matching

Without expert colour matching, manufacturers often face:

  • Rejected parts due to shade variation.
  • Wasted material during trial-and-error.
  • Production delays while adjusting colour formulations.
  • Brand damage if colours don’t meet customer expectations.

What a Colour Matching Service Provides

A professional service like Plascolour’s delivers:

  • Precision shade matching to meet exact brand or design requirements.
  • Material-specific formulation — accounting for polymer type, processing temperature, and end-use.
  • Batch-to-batch consistency so every delivery matches the last.
  • Nationwide support from our Basingstoke colour compounding plant.
