ColorMatrix™ Amosorb™ SolO2: a recyclable solution Recyclability has become a fundamental requirement for convertors and brand owners. Providing solutions that are considered recyclable within the colored bottle stream will thus be an integral part of the recyclability strategy for both convertors and brand owners. Avient undertook a recyclability study to show how bottles containing 0.09% Fortis Amber-1 and 4% Amosorb SolO2-2 achieve optimal results when going through two full loops of recycling.

OnColor™ NIR Sortable Colorants Near-Infrared Sortable Black and Dark Colorants for Recyclable Packaging OnColor™ NIR Sortable Colorants for recyclable black and dark packaging promotes correct sorting and recycling of dark polymers. This solution permits black and dark color polymers to be detected by near-infrared (NIR) automatic sorting equipment, enabling subsequent recycling. It is well known that detection and sorting of black or dark packaging in material recovery facilities is a complex issue affecting the packaging and recycling industries extensively.

RECYCLABILITY & rPET Brand owners wishing to operate with a Circular Economy need to use higher levels of rPET in their packaging. In order to satisfy the demand for a circular economy, governments are legislating increased use of recycled material in single use packaging. The EU’s directive for use of recycled PET (rPET) in bottles will increase from 25% in 2025.

Utilizing the Social Plastic from Plastic Bank, two new Maxxam™ REC Recycled Polyolefin formulations were developed, one in each RAL color requested. The new grades were formulated to provide a functional replacement for the previous used prime materials while incorporating 50% recycled ocean- bound plastic content. The new recycled polyolefins have enabled the replacement of fossil fuel-based feedstock with more carbon-friendly recycled ocean-bound plastics.

With its unique formulation, ColorMatrix AAnchor offers improved recyclability, reduced regulatory risk, and enhanced bottle quality, making it an ideal solution for brands looking to incorporate higher levels of recycled material into their packaging. IMPROVED RECYCLABILITY Increased rPET content requires higher levels of acetaldehyde (AA) scavenger, which can lead to various issues. ColorMatrix AAnchor is a non-ATA-based product with very low levels of migration to support compliance with migratory limits even in closed- loop recycle systems, where risk is highest.

ColorMatrix™ Amosorb™ 4020G Non-nylon based PET oxygen scavenger with lower haze and less impact on recycle stream ColorMatrix™ Amosorb™ 4020G is a non-nylon based next generation oxygen scavenger for PET rigid packaging with a reduction in haze and lower impact on the recycle stream. The EU’s directive for use of recycled PET (rPET) in bottles will increase from 25% in 2025 to 30% in 2030. ColorMatrix Amosorb 4020G also lowers impact on the PET recycle stream due to a reduction in rPET yellowing.
