How can we add value to your world today?

  • Biomaster, a silver ion technology, is an antimicrobial solution easily incorporated into any plastic, textile, paper, paint or coating.

  • Scentmaster Masterbatches present a wide range of fragrances for introduction into a variety of product materials.

    Due to its high fragrance concentration, Scentmaster introduction rates are typically 1% or lower - making it a cost-effective, as well as appealing addition to your product.

A significant objective of our products is to increase the safety of food production. Millions of working hours are lost annually due to food poisoning, and whilst diligence in temperature control is paramount, there is also the need to ensure that equipment is kept clean to avoid cross-contamination. The inclusion in our products of Biomaster provides added protection from cross-contamination and gives us a marketing advantage over many competitors.
