reSound™ REC Recycled Content TPEs: The new AF 7210 series of reSound REC TPEs contain 51 – 59% recycled content, including a minimum of 37% from post-consumer recycled (PCR) sources, including closed-loop feedstock from within the automotive industry. Gravi-Tech™ REC Recycled Formulations: These density-modified engineered polymer materials include up to 98% recycled content, offering a more sustainable alternative than density-modified grades based on prime or virgin polymers. Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy

Recycle Solutions Additionally, new minimum recycled content thresholds will mean that from 2025 there will be a sales ban on PET bottles containing less than 25% recycled plastics, increasing to 30% in 2030. The plastic packaging recycling target in Germany will rise to 63% from 2022 and the new law also introduces incentives for packaging producers to incorporate recyclability considerations into their packaging design, and to use recycled or renewable materials.

By incorporating such additives early in the recycling process or blending them with virgin resin, the degradation of material can be significantly reduced, ensuring the quality and performance of recycled plastics. These technologies also help extend the lifespan of recycled materials and promote a circular economy by enabling multiple recycling loops.   Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy  

SHANGHAI, China – June 27, 2023 – Today, Avient Corporation is expanding its reSound™ BIO bio-based and reSound™ REC recycled content Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) portfolios with the launch of a new range of halogen-free flame-retardant (HFFR) grades containing recycled and bio-based resin. To meet those needs, we are now offering added value for our customers in the USB-C cable market with a new product line of flame-retardant TPEs that incorporate post-consumer recycled (PCR) or bio-based content, resulting in a 15% to 25% product carbon footprint (CPF) reduction over incumbent virgin solutions.” Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy

This includes sustainable solutions that can enable recycling, support human health and safety, reduce energy use, and offer eco-conscious alternatives to traditional methods.   The colorants, provided as concentrate pellets, are added to virgin or recycled polymers during yarn manufacturing as a one-in-one manufacturing/dyeing process.
