White masterbatch is used extensively throughout the plastic market, but there is a lot of misleading information out there. For example, it is important to note that not all titanium dioxide (TiO2) pigments are equal. Firstly, TiO2 pigments are manufactured through two methods – rutile chloride process which produces a superior blue tone white pigment, and sulphate process which produces a creamy/yellow tone pigment. SAPY only utilises rutile chloride TiO2 pigment, and furthermore, this pigment is imported from reputable and reliable suppliers along with various supporting documentation for the use of this pigment in masterbatch for food packaging.
