NYSE: AVNT), a leading global provider of sustainable and specialized material solutions today announced that its Board of Directors has elected commented, "The world is experiencing first-hand the importance of supply chain leadership.  Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation

For example, automotive designers may choose materials for vehicle interior surfaces to create the perception of quality and luxury. TPEs can be used alone, or these softer materials can be overmolded onto a rigid plastic substrate using co-injection or insert injection-molding technology. A soft-touch TPE computer mouse grip, for example, provided a smooth feel, easy handing, and greater physical comfort.

Structural system enhancements, such as a portable light booth for immediate color matching, hand-held spectrophotometer, and embedded standard libraries such as PANTONE® colors, reduce the required color design time to right now, including precise color measurement and colorant quotation. Specialized labs then provide fast sample delivery, using expert formulation practices and quality raw materials to accelerate approvals and time to market. Avient Corporation provides specialized and sustainable material solutions that transform customer challenges into opportunities, bringing new products to life for a better world.
