Two innovative materials from PolyOne are featured in Schneider Electric’s Multifix™ Air home electrical installations. In addition to its non-halogen formulation, the regulatory-compliant Maxxam solution has a lower density than traditional materials, which reduces material consumption and housing weight for greater production efficiency. At Schneider Electric, quality, efficiency and environmental sustainability go hand-in-hand, so we were very pleased to work with PolyOne and leverage these non-halogenated formulations,” said Loic Perret, Global Commodity Director at Schneider Electric, which was ranked tenth by Corporate Knights, a Canadian media and investment research company, in its Global 100, a list of the most sustainable corporations in the world.

Parts molded from Artisan pre-colored thermoplastics offer excellent scratch resistance compared to painted plastic, which minimizes the appearance of scratches. Examples include: •    Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life and quality of food, beverages, medicine and other perishable goods through high-performance materials that require less plastic •    Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation •    Breakthrough technologies that minimize wastewater and improve the recyclability of materials and packaging across a spectrum of end uses Avient employs approximately 9,100 associates and is certified ACC Responsible Care® and a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste.  

However, medical devices and instruments are frequently exposed to harsh temperatures and chemicals for cleaning and disinfecting, which can diminish safety and color.   By color-coding its orthopedic devices, the customer was able to help medical professionals more easily determine which size of prosthesis would fit best for a patient.  Avient will exhibit at Hall 8A/G10 at K 2022 in Düsseldorf, Germany, from October 19-26, 2022.

NYSE: POL), a premier global provider of specialized polymer materials, services and solutions, today announced the acquisition of two specialty businesses from They are great additions to our growing specialty portfolio, which remains unmatched in the industry," said They are based on management's expectations that involve a number of business risks and uncertainties, any of which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements.

With these key goals set, Kalas reached out to Avient, which had been supplying lead-stabilized vinyl compounds for wire and cable jacketing for a number of years.  They also switched from color concentrates containing heavy metal to RoHS-compliant OnColor™ color concentrates. The manufacturer received recognition from NPEP for voluntarily lowering the amount of lead in its operations.

A concept which has proven successful," said Maurizio Torchio, Global Manager of ColorWorks at Avient. Bio-funk delves into technologies, from the uncanny brain organoids to quantum computers, that could break through to help meet the data processing capacities in an increasingly digitalized world. Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint

The new PCR-based reSound REC grades, which have been extensively tested in laboratories and applications in collaboration with OEM partners, exhibit outstanding results in line with requirements for automotive interiors. Developed for injection molding, Avient’s new grades for PP overmolding can deliver durable primeless bonding performance and are available in natural and custom-colored grades with hardnesses from Shore 40A to 80A.  Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint

For instance, bath-dyeing and piece-dyeing solutions can achieve deep black shades, but they typically require multiple passes, which can increase costs. Spin-dyeing is a one-in-one manufacturing and dyeing process; it reduces the energy needed compared to traditional bath-dyeing, which includes several steps from the production of the yarn to its dyeing. Our team of fiber experts provides product guidance and assistance in any process optimization or fine-tuning stage, from developing custom masterbatches to using the correct processing settings for optimal spin-dyeing results.
