Avient is constantly innovating to enhance its portfolio of sustainable materials. Hager wanted to utilize more recycled plastic in its products; however, the material needed to perform to the same technical specification as Hager’s current prime material. Avient is pleased to have been part of the collaboration between Plastic Bank and Hager Group, helping one of its recognized customers move towardsreaching its sustainability goals by transforming discarded ocean-bound plastic into high-performance polymers.

Garratt is senior vice president, president, Color, Additives & Inks for the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region at Avient Corporation, a premier provider of specialized and sustainable material solutions and services. Garratt served as chief operating officer of the private equity-owned Excel Polymers, where he led a successful business turnaround, resulting in improvements in revenue and profitability.
