THE CHALLENGES Improving rPET Quality • Reduce yellowing, improve color and assure IV uniformity Enhancing Bottle Performance • Improve bottle strength, reduce acetaldehyde and minimize thread pulls & blowouts that cause high scrap rates Reducing Carbon Footprint • Reduce energy consumption and raw material usage while driving product efficiencies OUR SOLUTIONS Aligning our work with sustainability demands, we address those challenges for rPET producers, convertors and brand owners alike with technologies to improve both quality and performance, ensuring the recyclability of plastic packaging. We offer solutions that allow for higher use rates while also reducing carbon emissions, helping to improve the sustainability of the PET bottle and drive the circular economy. Color consistency; recycle stream impact ColorMatrix™ SmartHeat RHC Tint or SmartHeat RHC Tone Recycle-friendly color or toner containing SmartHeat RHC, which helps to reduce carbon emissions and improve the quality and performance of rPET, allowing for higher levels of rPET to be used.

Scenarios for 2030 predict that of the 1300kt of PET material coming from PET bottles collected from the market yearly, between 20 to 30% will be colored bottles;2 these will enter their respective sorting and collection systems to ultimately produce rPET material that will be fed as new raw material for non-food PET applications. TECHNICAL BULLETIN 1 How to keep a sustainable PET recycling industry in Europe - EPBP - European PET Bottle Platform 2 How circular is PET? The ColorMatrix™ Amosorb™ product line currently offers a wide range of masterbatch grades that can be used to address the needs of different beverages or foods in terms of protection from oxygen ingress.

It reduces carbon emissions while also reducing preform AA, which helps to minimize the risk of off-taste in bottle contents. ColorMatrix AAzure allows for further optimization in the bottle blowing process, producing a better quality bottle with improved mechanical strength, while also reducing carbon emissions.  Sustainable Additives White Paper for Food and Beverage Packaging

PRODUCT BULLETIN OnColor™ Recovered Black OnColor™ Recovered Black is a black color concentrate that utilizes polymer material recyclate including pigments recovered from separate manufacturing processes. Used as a general purpose black, it is a versatile and cost-effective solution suitable for applications where a basic black colorant is required. An effective means of repurposing recyclate, OnColor R3 Recovered Black keeps waste from being sent to a landfill by reprocessing it into usable colorant.

Sustaining a Tradition of Craftsmanship Avient’s reinforced composite technologies use carbon, glass and aramid fibers with custom formulated thermoset or thermoplastic resins in continuous forming processes Glasforms™ and Gordon Composites™ Carbon Fiber Reinforced Rods, Bars and Laminates for Strengthening, Stiffening and Lightweighting - Product Bulletin

In fact, its engineers routinely test and validate a host of new composite applications. The automated pultrusion process fabricates continuous glass or carbon fiber-reinforced, constant cross-section profiles with consistent, uniform properties.  For the brace, Avient's engineering team developed and analyzed three options: a unidirectional, hybrid carbon and glass fiber profile; a unidirectional carbon fiber profile; and finally, a profile made with both a unidirectional carbon fiber and a transverse engineered fabric, which had the advantage of minimizing any potential cracks from propagating.
