WE ARE HOLLAND COLOURS
GLOBAL SUPPLIER OF PLASTIC COLORANTS AND ADDITIVES
Holland Colours began life in a brick shed in the Netherlands. We now have manufacturing and/or sales operations in the Netherlands, the United States, the United Kingdom, Hungary, Indonesia, Canada and Mexico. From here, more than 400 Holland Colours employee-owners serve local and global plastics manufacturers with a commitment you won’t find elsewhere. How are we doing? The figures tell the story.
ADDING COLOR TO THE WORLD SINCE 1979
Holland Colours was founded in 1979 by a group of enthusiastic plastics innovators. Their big idea? To make low- and no-dust colorants for plastic products. How? By encapsulating pigments in a bio-based carrier. The result was Holcobatch, a bio-based masterbatch that remains unique in the industry.
That same innovative spirit has taken us into new markets, across oceans and into new industries. It has seen us develop innovative technologies, products, solutions and services. And we’re not done yet. Today we offer plastic colorants and plastic additives that improve the quality of recycled plastics and so boost the circular economy. We help plastics manufacturers increase efficiency while cutting their carbon footprint. And there’s lots more to come.


ARE YOU AN EXPERT IN SEEING COLOR?
The Stroop effect is a trick of the mind that happens when we experience an information mismatch. Like when you are asked to say out loud the name of a color that has been printed in the ‘wrong’ color. See what happened when some kids took the test. Can you do better?
