Avient Joint Study with Borealis Reveals Wide Range of Color Options for Recycled Plastics   Avient adds Recycled and Bio-Based Polyolefin Formulations to its Sustainability Portfolio for K 2022  Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy 

L’Oréal recently expressed the need for a tool to help simplify the process of developing color with recycled resin. At the same time, L’Oréal had an objective is to have 100% of the plastics used in its packaging be made either from recycled or biobased sources by 2030. Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy

Cleaner rPET Stream: Recycle-friendly process aids ensure that the bottles produced are more easily recyclable. This leads to a cleaner recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET) stream, which is critical for creating high-quality recycled materials. Avient offers APR accredited process aids that can improve efficiencies, enhance recycling, and reduce energy used in the blowing process.

This solution addresses challenges associated with increased recycled PET (rPET) content, focusing on improving recyclability and enhancing bottle quality. This technology addresses challenges associated with recycling incompatible polymers like polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE) by forming a homogenous polymer mixture, increasing mechanical properties, and bridging the gap between virgin and recycled polymers. Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy  

Increase Sustainability Using More Recycled Content OnColor SC Super Concentrates give you the flexibility to incorporate higher levels of post- consumer regrind (PCR) than with traditional color masterbatches to help meet sustainability initiatives and recycled content requirements without adversely affecting the performance or aesthetic of your designs. Improve color usage efficiency with increased pigment density • Drop-in solution compatible with your current process • Incorporate higher loadings of PCR while maintaining color design aesthetic TARGET MARKET AND APPLICATIONS Compatible with: • PE, PP or PET multi-layer containers • Extrusion blow molding • Injection molding (caps and closures) PRODUCT BULLETIN NO SURPRISES PLEDGESM At Avient, we are committed to helping you grow your business with safe and environmentally sound solutions.

CHICAGO – At PACK EXPO International 2016 next week, PolyOne is helping brand owners to reach seemingly separate goals – recyclability, functionality and aesthetics – with a single solution: the diverse portfolio of GLS™ thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) for packaging.  Unlike other materials, GLS TPEs are recyclable, which is becoming increasingly more important to all consumers. TPEs are also compatible with most municipal recycling streams.
