Polymer vehicle interior delivers ‘wow’ factor, $500,000 in annual savings
After a successful trial, the OEM was convinced it could shift from fabric to a polymer interior using the color and additive concentrates.
Further savings came from improved operational efficiency, based on the high consistency and stability offered by the new color and additive concentrate.

This processing aid, formulated without fluoropolymers, was developed specifically for use in polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) applications and enables processing performance comparable to traditional fluoropolymer-based solutions.
Delivering comparable processing performance to traditional processing aids, Avient’s Cesa Non-PFAS Process Aid reduces friction between the polymer and the metal, allowing the polymer to be more easily extruded.
Our new Cesa processing aid helps to improve productivity and process stability for film or sheet extrusion, pipe extrusion, or extrusion blow molding,” said Mayendran Pillay, Marketing Director, Color & Additives North America at Avient.
