Avient Joins Better Plants Program
Avient proudly announced its partnership with the U.S.
The transition to a carbon neutral world is a shared responsibility that requires innovation, collaboration, new partnerships, and the support of effective policymaking.

This process can lead to a degradation of the PET
over time and a shift in color, often manifested
as increased color variability or yellowing, which
is undesirable in food and beverage packaging.
THE SOLUTION
When added to PET preforms or rPET, ColorMatrix
Optica blue toners and color formulations work to
correct any yellowing or color variation, resulting
in packaging that maintains a neutral or blue color
with improved quality and performance.
Avient makes no warranties or
guarantees respecting suitability of either Avient’s products or the information for your process or end-use application.
