Developed in response to increasing demand from regional brands in China for greater product differentiation, this collection of color and additive formulations also offers to streamline production and reduce manufacturing cost. We’ve developed the Frost Collection to enable brands to create high-end, sophisticated, and engaging bottles in a wide range of color options that also expand design freedom and cost effectiveness.”

Avient customers can visit these facilities to work with designers and create innovative effects for plastic color and design, using industry trends to streamline product development. The Phoenix Colorworks Center, like all other centers, will also offer onsite or virtual color development, a dedicated design lab, rapid prototyping, Color, Material, and Finish (CMF) trend consultation, and more.

This innovative technology is developed to meet the growing demand for high-performance protection in the electronics, appliances, building and construction, and transportation industries. The new series is also compatible with high-speed processing and can be easily customized, giving designers and innovators an edge in product development. 

Working closely with the Citroën design team, PolyOne developed a specialty OnColor™ Smartbatch™ color and additive system that allows the distinctive panels to meet stringent UV stability, appearance and durability requirements. Added Palm, “By working with Citroën and its Tier I suppliers, we were able to develop an advanced solution that provides the panels with uniform, attractive, and durable color despite exposure to sunlight, heat, and detergents.

If you do not see your substrate in this page, please contact us directly; we can develop a custom overmolding TPE that is optimized to bond to your specific substrate. Versaflex™ OM 9-801N was developed to bond to a variety of substrates allowing molders to use the same thermoplastic elastomer with varying substrates.

The Pact was developed in collaboration with the Ellen MacArthur Foundation as the first in a global network of initiatives working toward the circular economy. NOTE to journalists: PolyOne is also a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste, a different but complementary initiative that seeks to work across the plastics value chain on infrastructure development, education and engagement, innovation, and clean up efforts to keep plastic waste in the right place.

There is significant momentum in the textile manufacturing industry toward developing sustainable solutions across the entire supply chain,” explains John Van Hulle, President, Global Color Additives and Inks, PolyOne. This solution offers the environmental benefits and operational efficiencies of spin coloring, but with greater production flexibility and development speed to help brands and fiber producers react faster to market trends.”      

PolyOne continues to innovate and develop technologies that benefit our global customers and enable healthcare professionals to improve performance,” said Craig Nikrant, president, Global Specialty Engineered Materials, PolyOne Corporation.
