Injection-molded polymers can streamline assembly steps and eliminate secondary finishing processes, such as protective coatings and paint, enhancing production efficiency. Engine control, power electronics, infotainment, active safety systems, and other electronic systems are standard for modern vehicles.

Animal Testing Policy AVIENT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES In the normal course of doing business, Avient is required to conduct testing to ensure the safety of its products. Avient is committed to replacing, reducing and refining the use of animal testing by applying the following practices: • Replace – Before any vertebrae testing, Avient will investigate the use of alternative methods and approaches, including use of data that is already publically available, computational toxicology models and read-across to available data for similar substances Reduce – Avient will only consider animal testing if it is a legal requirement, or to ensure the safety of our products, when no suitable alternatives are available.

SAFETY & HEALTH POLICY Avient Corporation believes that safety and health are the highest corporate priority. As a member of the American Chemistry Council, we have adopted Responsible Care® Guiding Principles and the Process Safety Management Practices to continuously guide our efforts to improve safety performance. Our practices reinforce these imperatives, and our commitment to excellence in safety and health is absolute.
