About
Kafrit Industries makes the small things that decide how plastic behaves. Founded in 1973 and headquartered at Kibbutz Kfar Aza in southern Israel, the company develops and produces color masterbatches, additive masterbatches and performance compounds for plastics processors — the concentrated pellets that a converter blends into resin to give it its final character. The product range includes white and color masterbatches, UV stabilizer masterbatches, functional additive masterbatches, polymer compounds and, increasingly, sustainable and recycled solutions. In practice these impart color, UV stability, flame retardancy, anti-static and anti-block performance to products across packaging, agriculture, construction, automotive and consumer goods — the properties that determine whether a film survives a season outdoors or a component meets a fire rating. Kafrit operates as a multinational group, with production sites across Europe, North America, South America and Asia, plus subsidiaries such as Kafrit Advanced Compounds serving extruders and converters worldwide. Its buyers are plastics processors, film and pipe producers, and brand owners who specify the additive performance rather than just the polymer. A quote depends on the base polymer, the target property (UV, flame retardancy, anti-static, color), the let-down ratio and the processing temperature; custom formulations are developed per application, so a clear brief shortens development.
