In addition, the polyketone-based glass-filled formulations offer comparable performance to nylon, plus the benefit of enabling a lower carbon footprint for a more eco-conscious alternative.

Available in 10 different shades, ITOFIX EVO reactive dyes offer an innovative and eco-conscious alternative for the coloration of cellulosic fibers.

More brand owners in the plastics and rubber industries are now looking for sustainable and innovative alternative materials that can also meet performance demands," says Flight Xu, General Manager, Specialty Engineered Materials Asia for Avient, “As a global provider of specialized TPEs and specialty engineered materials, we have also developed lightweight, recycled, bio-based, and eco-conscious materials with a lower carbon footprint than virgin alternatives to support sustainability goals from conception to commercialization.”  

Polyketone is considered “eco-conscious” due to the reduced environmental impact of this base resin during the production process compared to PA6, PA66, and POM.

Manufacturing eco-conscious products – whether they enable the circular economy or reduce your carbon footprint.

Magna is a market leader in sustainable, water-based inks technology for the textile screen printing industry. 

The kit contains translucent polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and opaque/gradient polypropylene (PP) bottles enhanced with effect pigments, laser marking, and printed sleeves.

Using recycled materials is one way to attract eco-conscious consumers, but also to prepare for possible future legislation as governing bodies are looking to reduce carbon emissions.
