moisture environments.
These reinforced grades are targeted at applications in the industrial, electronics and
transportation markets like pipes and tubing, electrical battery components, and under-
the-hood fuel or chemical contact components.

To ensure our work environment is as safe as possible,
this included:
• Strict adherence to all local government requirements as well as incorporating WHO and
CDC guidelines
• Required remote work for associates able to do so
• Social distancing, increased and regular sanitization, pre-shift wellness assessments and on-site
temperature checks
• Incident reporting and contact tracing procedures, including self-quarantine if suspected exposure
• Support services for the physical and mental health of our associates and their families
• Continuous communications, education, awareness, updates and encouragement to
our associates
At the same time that we prioritize health and safety, it is essential that Avient continue to produce our
materials and serve customers.
The novel insecticides in development are formulated tightly
into the masterbatch, allowing best bio-efficiency performance with
a permanent but slow release to the surface—just enough to kill any
