Brand owners increasingly face the challenge of engaging their audience with something new. In most cases, a package is the first point of contact consumers have when evaluating a product. Consider a bottle closure.

By 2030, Avient will enable 100% of our products manufactured for packaging applications to be recyclable or reusable to advance the circular economy Approximately 90% of Avient’s products met this criteria in 2020 By 2030, to ensure alignment with Avient’s expectations on environmental, social and governance requirements, Avient will assess its top suppliers representing 90% of our total raw material costs.

At the scientific level, rubber and silicone are both thermoset materials, meaning once the material is molded it is “set” and cannot be broken down to be molded again. Unless you are a polymer expert, it’s challenging to know which type of TPE is the best fit for your use case. One of the most commonly cited advantages of TPEs is the ability to produce products via high-volume injection molding, which is an extremely cost- effective process.

Stat-Tech TPEs can be both injection molded and extruded, giving great design freedom for more complex geometries.

Fiber length attrition can occur from shear in the injection molding press or from tight runner radii and improper gating in the mold. This concept provides a competitive marketing advantage over products made from simpler plastics. Complex Geometry – Switching from methods of metal forming to injection molding long fiber composites allows production of components with more complex geometries.
