Select™ is a combined hardware and software system for developing and prototyping new custom colors in real-time, at a customer’s site or at a Avient facility Consider design trends, materials and processing options when designing your new phone case models.  Specialty color and additive Smartbatch™ concentrate developed with carbon fiber to produce desired effect for automotive interior

A NEW PCR COLORATION TOOL Avient has developed a digital tool to help assess the impact of colored, recycled resins (PCR) prior to laboratory trials. The tool can digitally illustrate, in real-time, the color possibilities or limitations of certain types of PCR, simplifying the overall color decision-making process during product development and launch. It can also help shorten launch time for new product ranges, allowing fast and reliable checks prior to initiating sample development.

Helping to improve sustainability over the end- product lifecycle, these formulations offer a reduced carbon footprint as a result of the PK base resin. Available in natural and black grades, this Edgetek PKE GF series can be colored at the press. Some formulations are also available pre-colored.

CREATING A MORE SUSTAINABLE PACKAGE There are a number of ways to create packaging that is considered more sustainable. This can include increasing the percentage of post-consumer recycled content (PCR), reducing the carbon footprint during production or shipping, or improving package recyclability. Super concentrates can give greater flexibility in coloring higher levels of PCR than traditional masterbatches, and can be used in a multi- layer bottle construction

Long carbon and glass fiber reinforced thermoplastics are structural injection molding composites with metal replacement performance. Avient has capabilities to assist you throughout an entire product launch - through product design, performance analysis, composite selection, composite pellet production, first article runs at our facility, and, finally, collaborating with your selected injection molder to ensure success.

Circular Economy + Sustainability These injection moldable TPEs can be overmolded to polypropylene (PP) and come in a natural grade that can be easily colored. These material developments create an opportunity to help divert mountains of valuable resources from the waste stream and upcycle them into new products.
