The company has updated its projections to include Dyneema, present the Distribution segment as discontinued operations, and adjust its outlook to reflect current demand conditions and additional unfavorable currency exchange.
In addition, and in the near term, we believe current global demand is likely further weakened by customer inventory destocking."

In addition to surviving the
treatment period, if the sample did not exhibit signs
of significant crazing or cracking then an additional
positive mark was granted.
Regarding tensile
properties, three additional categories granted
positive marks:

Avient™ ColorMatrix™ Joule Reheat Additive
Proprietary IR Absorber
Avient™ ColorMatrix™ Joule reheat additive
is a proprietary IR absorber manufactured and
marketed by ColorMatrix worldwide for use
in PET resin formulations suitable for carbonated
soft drinks and beverage applications.
As a major supplier of additives and colors
to the plastics industry, ColorMatrix has, in the
course of supporting its customers worldwide,
developed best practice guidelines for its
products which it provides as a free service.
Such advice, for example how to set up blow
molding machines, is not equipment specific and
therefore ColorMatrix would always recommend
using local or expert technicians in addition to
following best practice points listed below;
• Preforms should be conditioned for minimum
24 hours prior to blowing
• Preforms should always be used in a FIFO
manner (First In, First Out)
• Octabins of preforms should be segregated and
blown per resin type, i.e. not mixed with other
resins
• A preform traceability system should be in
place such that any process upsets can be
quickly followed up and corrected
• Enhanced QC preform checking resources
for bottle distribution, aesthetics and integrity
should be on-hand during the performance
optimization trials
• Prior to any process optimization, the blowing
machine performance should be verified as
being within normal i.e. accepted standard
ranges and all important components and
control features are working satisfactorily.

Triple A is a dispersion which can be
supplied individually or in combination
with other ColorMatrix colorant and
additive technologies.

We will deliver for our stakeholders through multiple value creation levers—many of
which are unique to Avient:
o Demand for sustainable solutions, healthcare, and composites, together with Clariant Color
revenue synergies, that will drive long-term revenue growth in excess of GDP
o Clariant color cost synergy capture will result in significant near-term benefit
In addition, we remain committed to increasing annual dividends in line with earnings growth and
opportunistically buying back shares, all while remaining modestly levered.
