There is also a shift from polypropylene (PP) to high-density polyethylene (HDPE) closures, where post-consumer resin is more readily available.
Fortunately, there are a number of options available to help you effectively use PCR in closure applications.

CLEVELAND – August 19, 2021 – Avient today announced the latest additions to its growing reSound™ R recycled-content thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) portfolio.
Available globally, the new reSound R TPEs are formulated with regionally recycled PVB.
For a complete view of the reSound R line of recycled-content TPEs, available in PCR and post-industrial recycled (PIR) content ranging from 8 to 93 percent, please click here.

They are made without bisphenol A (BPA) and are available in standard or custom colors.
Avient will also feature the latest Mevopur™ Healthcare Bio-based Polymer Solutions from its portfolio, with a new standard color range centered on bio-based polypropylene (bio-PP).
Three standard white colorants in bio-polyethylene are also available for pharmaceutical packaging manufacturers.

Understand what consumers want, then use newly available technologies to create the dream.
It is unlikely that these influences will change, so manufacturers must strive to keep up with the latest developments and continue to challenge the status quo — or risk being left behind.
In the same way that a consumer can choose paint and upholstery options, the panels on the C4 Cactus auto are available in a range of colors.

To avoid these types of defects, find the radius of transition zones and corners in your mold.
If these materials are used in hot runner tools with dead zones or self-insulating runner systems, gels of cross-linked TPE may be sloughed into the flow path, partially blocking thin areas such as gates or part walls.
However, we do not recommend the use of self-insulating runner systems for SBS or SEBS TPEs, due to the dead zones and potential for polymer degradation.
