Compatible with all Poyatos machines — from the Prima to the Megabloc. Integrates directly into your existing production line with no major modifications to your plant.

Production Benefits

What Colour Mixing Delivers for Your Plant

A standard grey block sells at a basic price. The same block with a natural colour gradient or blended finish can sell for 30–50% more. The Poyatos Colour Mixing System lets you enter premium product markets from your existing production line — no new machine needed.

Enhanced product appearance

Natural colour variations give blocks a premium appearance — standing out in merchants and landscaping projects.

Product differentiation

Coloured blocks move you out of price competition — into a higher-margin product category.

Higher product value

Coloured blocks sell at 30–50% above standard prices — one of the fastest-payback plant investments.

Flexible production

Switch colours and blending ratios quickly — serve more customers without stopping production.

What is a colour mixing system for concrete blocks?

A colour mixing system automatically doses colour pigment — in powder or granule form — into the concrete mix or face layer during the block production cycle. The result is a block or paver with a consistent, natural colour throughout or on its visible face. Poyatos offers dosing and blending systems that create gradient colour effects — where the colour varies naturally across the block surface, giving it a high-end natural stone appearance.

What is the difference between powder and granule pigments — and which should I use?

Both powder and granule pigments produce coloured blocks — but they behave differently in the mix. Powder pigments dissolve evenly and give strong, consistent colour throughout the block. Granule pigments create a more varied, natural-looking colour gradient — with different tones across the block face. The right choice depends on the product you want to sell. Granule pigments are ideal for blocks and pavers targeting landscaping and premium construction markets, where a natural stone look is important. Powder pigments suit markets where consistent, solid colour is required.

Is the colour mixing system compatible with my Poyatos machine?

Yes. The Poyatos Colour Mixing System is compatible with all block machine models — from the Prima to the Megabloc. It can be installed as a new addition to your existing production line or supplied as part of a new plant installation. The system is configured to match your block machine's production speed and mould format. No major plant modifications are needed.

Does adding colour mixing slow down my block machine?

No. The colour mixing system operates inline with your block machine's existing production cycle — pigment is dosed automatically during the normal mixing and pressing process. There is no additional cycle time and no reduction in your blocks-per-hour output. Your plant produces coloured blocks at the same speed as standard blocks.

Which markets buy coloured concrete blocks and pavers?

Coloured blocks and pavers are in high demand in landscaping, urban public spaces, driveways, gardens, retail and commercial developments, and premium residential projects. Markets in Western Europe, the Gulf states, North America, and growing urban markets in Africa and Southeast Asia are increasingly requesting coloured concrete products. Once your plant offers coloured blocks, you can charge a premium price and access a wider customer base than with standard grey blocks alone.
