NOTE: On July 1, 2020, PolyOne and Clariant Masterbatch joined together as Avient, a new kind of materials company focused on conquering customer challenges and unlocking the potential for innovation and sustainability around the globe. About Avient Avient Corporation (NYSE: AVNT), with 2019 pro forma revenues of $4 billion, provides specialized and sustainable material solutions that transform customer challenges into opportunities, bringing new products to life for a better world. Examples include: •    Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life and quality of food, beverages, medicine and other perishable goods through high-performance materials that require less plastic •    Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation •    Breakthrough technologies that minimize wastewater and improve the recyclability of materials and packaging across a spectrum of end uses

This investment at our facility in Pune answers customers’ desire for a domestic supplier able to offer expertise in color, engineered materials and thermoplastic elastomers,” said Craig Nikrant, president, Specialty Engineered Materials, PolyOne. We are the only global company to offer all of these domestically produced materials in India. The company expanded manufacturing capability to include specialty engineered materials last year.

Currently, the company is producing 800,000 housings annually using the specialty TPE material. The TPE grade surpassed the performance of the previous material and allowed the manufacturer to introduce a more efficient production process. Adding to the overall value of the solution, the TPE yields significantly less scrap than the previously used AES material.

This unique material is at the heart of every product it makes. If you’d like assistance with material selection for your applications, contact us. Our team of experts has the material expertise to determine what will work best in your situation.

That’s why the manufacturer’s technical team hoped to find a single-layer material to jacket and insulate the wire. The engineering team conferred with Avient to find a material that could meet the stringent requirements. Reduced costs: An estimated savings of $500,000 a year in production costs, primarily through reduced materials and energy costs.
