Building on the design concept from SurfCo, Avient conducted additional R&D work to formulate a specialty thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) that could be coextruded with polypropylene (PP) film and meet the high expectations of SurfCo and surfers everywhere.

The PET packaging market is experiencing significant growth, driven by increasing sustainability demands, higher recycling targets, and the shift away from alternative materials such as polystyrene (PS) or polypropylene (PP).

In 2014, it was spun off from Closure Systems International (CSI), and currently produces over three billion aluminum closures annually in 28 and 30 millimeter diameters suitable for any type of still, carbonated or alcoholic beverage packaged in glass, PET or aluminum bottles. Sealing of reusable glass bottles with rim imperfections presents an even greater challenge compared to sealing of one-way, disposable bottles.

Completes specialty acquisitions of Gordon Composites and Polystrand and establishes Advanced Composites platform existing composite technologies under a new platform to be called PolyOne Advanced Composites, which will operate within the Specialty Engineered Materials segment. Gordon Composites complements our Glasforms business with leading thermoset solutions. 

Our offerings include specialty engineered materials, performance fibers, advanced composites, and color and additive systems. Depending on the material, our composite and fiber solutions may run into challenges in finding outlets for waste to divert from landfill. The plan includes a range of options, including repurposing scrap composite rods as fence posts, recycling of scrap glass, and recycling of composite finished goods.
