We’ll
work with you on solutions that help protect the
Earth’s resources, such as:
• Increase use of post-consumer recycled (PCR)
content with highly loaded colorants
• Use foaming agents to reduce material usage
• Extend product life with additives that protect
against harsh environments
• Conserve resources with solutions that enable
more efficient production; reduce part weight,
energy or material consumption; enable
faster cycle times; or provide better insulating
properties
