Erk-Han in the home appliance industry

In home appliances, plastic parts come from different molds, sometimes from different suppliers, and meet on the same assembly line, so color consistency is the top requirement. Erk-Han produces white and color masterbatch and functional additives for the plastic parts of refrigerators, washing machines, dishwashers, air conditioners and small appliances, and ships them to producers in Europe, Africa and the Americas.

Products

Color consistency

For color orders, we recommend defining the target color with a physical sample or a RAL code, and the target color difference (ΔE) and measuring illuminant in your quotation request. The approved formulation is kept unchanged in every lot, and each shipment comes with a certificate of analysis (CoA).

Recommended Dosage

  • In standard body and internal components: 1.0% - 2.0%
  • In small appliances requiring high gloss and aesthetic surfaces: 1.5% - 3.0%
  • In special applications for anti-yellowing (UV) and dust-repellency (Antistatic): 2.0% - 4.0%

Shipping

We ship from our plant in Bursa OSB, 30 minutes from Gemlik Port, under EXW, FCA, FOB, CFR, CIF and DAP. The MSDS and TDS are prepared together with the ATR, EUR.1 and certificate of origin each shipment requires.

Frequently Asked Questions

The questions home appliance producers ask most.

Why do white parts turn yellow over time?
Heat and UV light cause oxidation in the polymer. Using an antioxidant and a UV stabilizer together with a rutile TiO₂ white masterbatch delays yellowing.
Why does the same color look different on parts from different molds?
The base polymer, process temperature and surface gloss can make the same color look different. Stating the base polymer and process in the color request reduces this difference.
How do I start a color matching project?
Share the target color, base polymer, process and target ΔE in the color matching request form.
Which delivery terms do you offer?
EXW, FCA, FOB, CFR, CIF and DAP. Just state your destination in the quotation request.
