Complēt™ REC
Long Fiber Reinforced Composites Incorporating Recycled Resin
The Complēt™ REC portfolio consists of long fiber
reinforced composites incorporating post-consumer
recycled (PCR) nylon 6 resin, post-industrial
recycled (PIR) nylon 66 resin, and PIR thermoplastic
polyurethane (TPU) resin.
These resin sources provide sustainable options for
applications that require excellent structural and
toughness capabilities while offering comparable
performance to standard long fiber materials.

PERFORMANCE
COMPARISON
Long fiber composites can be custom formulated with varying levels of
recycled resin as well as varying levels of fiber reinforcement to balance
your performance and sustainability goals.

THE SOLUTION
Avient recommended Bergamid™ B70 G30H black TM-X PA 6
resin with 30 percent glass fiber reinforcement for its excellent
mechanical properties and cost benefits.
HellermannTyton decided to develop the seat securement
part using injection-molded Bergamid resin in a standard
black color.
Further, the material costs for Bergamid resin are lower
than those of bent steel plate.
