The manufacturer began working with Avient to find a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) solution to meet its dual requirements. Avient’s team recommended the use of overmolding (two-shot injection molding) to integrate the boot with the saw housing, and trialed several products before customizing a grade from its portfolio. Avient gathered detailed data from this customer’s production facility in Mexico and helped them calculate and compare the costs of the two solutions.

A leading supplier of advanced automotive technologies approached Avient to create a new olefinic material for an HVAC damper. Avient engineered a new customized formulation for the part using Maxxam™ Polyolefin Formulations.

A supplier of plastic compounds now has an invaluable competitive edge in one of its primary markets, thanks to an in-depth research and color-finding project recently completed in partnership with Avient ColorWorks™. After taking part in a customer-day event at the Avient ColorWorks design and technology center in Milan, company founder Francesco Franceschetti was inspired and suggested a collaboration to conduct an exhaustive study of the Italian ski boot marketplace and the colors boot makers use in their products.

Avient worked with a progressive customer who designed floating solar panels that float on large bodies of water, and require very demanding weather resistance in harsh environments. Fixed in idle waters in Taiwan in this case, Avient’s integrated colorant and anti-UV solution is expected to provide 25 years of weathering resistant performance.
