Plastics Color Corporation is a pioneer in an industry constantly moving forward. Providing color concentrates and additive masterbatches is just the beginning of the PCC story. No mere commodity supplier, PCC defines itself as the industry partner that delivers exactly what’s needed to the appliance manufacturer, the furniture maker, the pharmaceutical supplier and other companies that insist on world-class quality and unmatched customer service.
Like the plastics industry itself, PCC relies on its knowledge, its 40-plus years of experience and its “pyramid of partnership” — vendors, customers and associates — to deliver standard-setting products today and to develop market-changing products tomorrow.
 “Ours is the true vision of partnership,” insists PCC President Douglas Borgsdorf. “We can address customers’ specific needs and service customers anywhere. We actually immerse ourselves into customers’ operations, creating solutions to everything from the product itself to the packaging to the storage.”
Headquartered in Calumet City, Illinois, PCC is a vendor with a global portfolio. It handles liquid color orders in China at the same time it fulfills food-contact requirements in the United States, Canada and Europe. Most important, PCC’s global standard for raw-material supply underpins quality assurance at all of its manufacturing facilities. For PCC, product consistency is the universal language.
PCC is particularly proud of its leading role in today’s “plastics evolution.” Fully equipped laboratories deliver customized support in processing, material selection and physical testing. Enhanced correlation of color matching and quality control are givens. And the corporation’s Plant Within a Plant concept is accelerating R&D as well as production breakthroughs.

Today and for the future, PCC remains especially committed to the environment, championing sustainability through green plastics. Since 2007, for example, PCC has offered an innovative line of masterbatch additive using a new impact modifier from Rohm and Haas - Paraloid-BPM 500™. In addition, PCC provides a line of colorants that are derived from biodegradable resources, as well as other impact modifiers.
PCC’s technological success reflects elements of its corporate values, which include:
- Integrity — Setting and meeting high standards
- Customer Satisfaction — Supporting customers through innovation and unparalleled service
- Teamwork — Building a foundation of future growth among people
- Stewardship — Promoting a better workplace and a better world
- Commitment — Making continuous improvement an everyday goal
- Accountability — Embracing responsibility to customers

PCC’s vision is always forward. “We’re working with the customer to determine what their future will look like in five years,” says Douglas Borgsdorf. “With that knowledge, we’re deciding what PCC needs to look like in five years.
