The efficiency-enhancing features ensure continuous and consistent delivery of liquid colorants and additives, reducing overall waste. In addition, Avient is excited to share that its facility in India recently reached two tremendous milestones. Since then, Avient has become better together by further expanding its growing composites portfolio with the addition of the globally admired brand of Dyneema®, the World's Strongest Fiber™.

The use of PCR material grades from the Borcycle™ M portfolio from Borealis in tandem with specifically developed formulations from the Avient OnColor™ portfolio can help achieve a desired color effect with low levels of colorant addition and good detectability in the sorting process  In addition, the market availability of PCR in light and natural tones is equally limited. In Europe, we are a market leader in base chemicals and fertilizers.

In addition, Avient is expanding its polyamide portfolio to include reSound R ND with post-consumer content. These new additions to our reSound portfolio are an excellent example of the way we continue to invest in and expand these sustainable solutions.” In addition to advancing material science solutions to enable customers’ sustainability goals, Avient joined the Alliance to End Plastics Waste as a founding member in 2019 in support of its commitment to invest $1.5B over five years in projects that end plastic waste in the environment.

The materials can also be customized with radiopacifiers, colors, and other additives to meet specific application requirements.  In addition, the material can be overmolded on various substrates such as TPU and Nylon to allow for the creation of complex medical devices. About Avient
