Colour Matcher; Masterbatch

• Develop and adjust colour formulations based on customer requirements, target samples, and production standards.
• Conduct end-to-end colour matching processes, including pigment selection, formulation, trial, adjustment, and final approval.
• Perform colour trials using plastic processing equipment such as injection molding, blow molding, or other relevant machines.
• Measure and evaluate colour accuracy using spectrophotometers, including LAB and ΔE values.
• Work with various plastic materials such as PP, PE, PET, ABS, PC, PS, and other polymers.
• Understand pigment behaviour, colour dispersion, material compatibility, and the effect of processing conditions on final colour results.
• Use colour matching software and laboratory equipment to develop and fine-tune formulations.
• Prepare colour samples, formulation records, technical documentation, and laboratory reports.
• Troubleshoot colour variation, pigment dispersion, and material-related issues during laboratory trials and production.
• Coordinate closely with R&D, Quality Control, Production, and Sales teams to ensure colour consistency and smooth implementation.
• Support customer trials and technical discussions when required.
• Maintain and update physical and digital colour libraries for future reference and traceability.

• Diploma or Bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Polymer Science, Materials Engineering, or a related field.
• Minimum 2–5 years of experience in colour matching, preferably within the plastic, masterbatch, pigment, compound, or related manufacturing industry.
• Must have hands-on experience in the colour matching process within the plastic industry.
• Good understanding of pigment characteristics and plastic/polymer materials.
• Familiar with plastic materials such as PP, PE, PET, ABS, PC, PS, or similar polymers.
• Hands-on experience using spectrophotometers, colour matching software, and LAB/ΔE measurement.
• Understanding of injection molding, blow molding, extrusion, or other plastic processing methods would be an advantage.
• Strong colour sensitivity, attention to detail, and problem-solving capability.
• Able to collaborate effectively with R&D, QC, Production, and Commercial teams.
• Proactive, organized, and able to manage multiple colour-development projects.
• English communication skills would be an advantage.
