The company’s approach to product design is deeply rooted in the principles of the circular economy and BIC’s 4R philosophy: reducing the amount of raw materials, including as much recycled or alternative materials as possible, making more refillable products, and improving the recyclability of both products and packaging. When BIC engineers were challenged to incorporate more recycled materials in a new sustainable women’s razor, they found answers in Avient’s sustainable solutions. reSound™ REC post-industrial recycle (PIR) and post-consumer recycle (PCR) TPEs help brand owners create sustainable end-user products.

The Easy Peasy trend is driven by the increased demand from consumers and governments for repairable products, pushing manufacturers to think about repairability and modularity when designing consumer products.  About Avient   Avient Corporation provides specialized and sustainable material solutions that transform customer challenges into opportunities, bringing new products to life for a better world.

The manufacturer was working with Avient on other projects, so it brought together experts from both companies to work on identifying a material that would reduce warpage and improve productivity. Working together, they identified an alternative material that met the performance requirements of the product but did not require blending. Increased productivity: The new material allowed the manufacturer to more than double output via tooling and cycle time improvements.

Working together, the supplier and Avient’s technical team also considered opportunities to optimize production. Product Selection Help Product Selection Help
