Frost Effect Masterbatch is a specialized additive designed to give plastic products a refined frosted-glass appearance. By reducing surface gloss and delivering a smooth matte finish, it brings an elegant “ice-like” visual and tactile effect to both rigid and flexible plastics—especially PET packaging. This technology is increasingly popular among manufacturers seeking frost effect masterbatch in Indonesia and frost effect masterbatch in Pakistan, where demand for premium packaging finishes continues to rise.
Frost effect masterbatch is a concentrated functional formulation that transforms clear or translucent polymers into soft, matte, frosted materials. The finished product resembles natural ice or etched glass, offering a stylish, high-end look that enhances packaging visibility and consumer appeal.
Designed for PET, PP, and other polymers, the masterbatch modifies surface texture during processing—without affecting mechanical strength, clarity, or recyclability.
The masterbatch achieves its visual impact by modifying the behavior of light on the polymer surface:
Light-Scattering Micro-Additives
Micro-particles are dispersed throughout the polymer, forming micro-textures that scatter light and create the frosted appearance.
Adjustable Surface Roughness
By simply adjusting the dosage, manufacturers can achieve finishes ranging from gentle translucent frost to rich, deep matte.
In-Mold Matte Formation
Added directly during ISBM, blow molding, extrusion, or injection molding, the frost effect is generated instantly—no spraying, etching, coating, or secondary processes required.
This one-step efficiency has made Iplastar’s solution a top choice for processors sourcing frost effect masterbatch in Indonesia and frost effect masterbatch in Pakistan.

Low Density Polyethylene – Somewhat more translucent than HDPE and considerably more pliable, primarily employed in flexible packaging, tote bags, pliable tubing, film applications, and similar uses. Like HDPE, it has limited transparency characteristics. It exhibits outstanding chemical resistance to alcohols, acids, and alkalis but has restricted resistance to hydrocarbon solvents and mineral oils. Prolonged exposure to UV radiation can initiate degradation.
High-Density Polyethylene – Featuring a somewhat milky-white appearance, this material finds wide application in rigid bottle packaging, injection-molded caps and closures, crates, and more. Its natural opacity can limit the degree of transparency attainable. HDPE exhibits superior chemical and solvent resistance when compared to LDPE.


PPCO Random & PPHO – A polymer with moderate clarity, employed in the production of caps and closures. It is also utilized for crafting household items, buckets, toys, and storage containers. Polypropylene offers flexibility without significant limitations on color or special effects. Random copolymer boasts greater clarity compared to homopolymer and is better suited for creating translucent shades.
PPCO Block – Similar to PPCO but enhanced for increased impact resistance. An additive renders the polymer white, resulting in high opacity. This characteristic may limit the achievable transparency.
Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) – Polyester materials exhibit robust mechanical strength along with excellent chemical resistance and barrier properties. PET is frequently chosen for the production of carbonated beverage containers. Moreover, polyester can be spun and employed in textile manufacturing for clothing. PET is highly transparent, making it an excellent choice for translucent packaging, although a subtle hint of “yellowing” may impact extremely light tints.


Polybutylene Terephthalate – A crystalline thermoplastic engineering polymer frequently employed as an insulating material within the electronics sector. This substance belongs to the polyester category, showcasing a remarkable equilibrium of attributes and processing qualities.
General Purpose Polystyrene – Exhibiting a glass-clear appearance but possessing minimal impact resistance, this material finds its primary application in CD cases. Its notable clarity renders it suitable for creating translucent hues, although an occasional violet tint may be discernible.


High Impact Polystyrene – Derived from GPPS by incorporating an impact-enhancing agent to boost its resistance to impacts. This added component results in the polymer becoming white, and different formulations provide varying degrees of opacity. Typically employed in the fabrication of game pieces, toys, and similar items. Its pronounced whiteness can pose challenges when aiming for translucent coloration. Specialized alternatives like K-Resin and Styrolux are accessible in the market to attain the same level of translucency as GPPS.
Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) – A more robust iteration of High Impact Polystyrene (HIPS) employed in high-value components. ABS exhibits greater durability compared to HIPS-made components, although it encounters similar challenges when attempting to achieve translucent colorations. Just like HIPS, ABS offers specialized translucent variants. Owing to its durability, ABS is commonly used in crafting casings for power tools.


Polyamide (6, 66) – Nylon represents a versatile grade extensively employed in mechanical construction and maintenance. Its popularity stems from its excellent blend of mechanical strength, rigidity, mechanical damping characteristics, and effective electrical insulation capabilities. Consequently, nylon is a preferred material for manufacturing electrical enclosures. PA66 serves as a common alternative to metal across diverse applications, with its chemical and physical attributes closely resembling those of PA6. PA6 exhibits superior impact resistance and resistance to solvents, albeit with a heightened susceptibility to moisture absorption.
Styrene Acrylonitrile Copolymer – Possessing transparency and outstanding chemical and heat resistance, SAN also boasts good rigidity, tensile strength, and flexural strength. Thanks to its high-gloss finish, SAN is commonly chosen for cosmetic packaging purposes. However, achieving light tint colors with SAN can be challenging due to the violet dyestuffs inherent in the material, which are utilized to enhance its visual appearance during manufacturing.


Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol – PET with the incorporation of glycol. This glycol addition enhances flow properties but diminishes strength. PETG can be extruded to create bottles and can be formed into sheets for producing ‘blister’ style packaging.
Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) or Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) – TPU finds diverse uses in applications such as automotive instrument panels, caster wheels, power tools, medical devices, as well as various extruded film, sheet, and profile applications. TPEs are employed across a wide range of applications in industries spanning automotive, medical, construction, electrical, appliances, packaging, and industrial sectors.
