THE SOLUTION
The company’s product management team reached
out to Avient’s Gordon Composites group to identify an
alternative spring solution.
Working together to understand the unique
requirements for the company’s conveyor application,
the engineering team at Avient developed customized
flat springs that provide more consistent quality and
longer fatigue life than the original components,
improving conveyor performance and longevity.

COLLABORATION HELPS POTABLE WATER EQUIPMENT
MANUFACTURER FEND OFF PIRATES
To learn more about Avient’s lasermarking
and anti-counterfeiting solutions, contact us at
info@Avient.com.
At the same time, the situation was adding significant
expense to the manufacturer’s bottom line, as it had to
defend product failure lawsuits brought by construction
companies who had assumed they had purchased
genuine equipment.
It enabled the company to defend against
counterfeiting in overt and covert ways, and to protect
its powerful brand image.
