Design flexibility = fast customization: Plastic offers
much greater design freedom than metal, enabling the
company to quickly develop and produce variations of
the seat securement part for different customers
Injection molding = system cost savings: Compared
to metal fabrication, which requires time-consuming
secondary operations, injection molded plastics can be
produced as a net-shape part in a single step, boosting
productivity and lowering system costs.

POLYOLEFINS
ALIGNING WITH
SUSTAINABILITY GOALS
POLYOLEFINS
ARE EVERYWHERE
Polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) are among
the most popular plastics in the world.
These may
include:
• Achieve a percentage of all packaging that is
reusable, recyclable or compostable
• Increase the use of post-consumer recycled
(PCR) content, up to 100%
• Use lightweighting or other solutions that will
help reduce your carbon footprint
• Replace petroleum-based materials with
renewable materials such as bio-plastics
Whatever your goals, we can help you achieve them
with customized solutions based on a number of
factors.

When added to plastics, special effect pigments
create a distinctive impression like pearlescence,
sparkle or a metallic look.
Please be aware that there are certain applications Avient’s Mevopur products have not been designed for, nor are they promoted or intended for use in: including, but not limited to long-term or permanent
