Ultimately, our performance
must drive growth as a truly
world-class, sustainable
organization, achieving the
right results, the right way.
Under our EH&S MS, Avient has rolled out multifaceted trainings and tools to achieve our ultimate goal of
zero recordable injuries in the workplace.
In 2022, Avient launched new technologies and services designed to enable the sustainability
commitments set by our customers in the packaging market, including:
ColorMatrix™ Ultimate™ UV Light Barrier for PET effectively blocks ultraviolet light transmission,
protecting product integrity, without impacting the circularity.

Having more charging stations available will reduce drivers' concerns about traveling longer distances in an electric vehicle, ultimately resulting in increased EV sales.
Charging stations can be protected from harsh outdoor environments and daily wear-and-tear by using various solutions, including UV protection, chemical resistance, scratch and mar resistance, or impact modification.
