With the addition of this Phoenix site, there are now five ColorWorks sites across the globe, including Merate (Italy), Sao Paulo (Brazil), Singapore, and West Chicago, Illinois (United States).   With the addition of ColorWorks Phoenix, we can more readily collaborate with our customers, especially those in the western part of the United States,” said Mayendran Pillay, Marketing Director, Color & Additives for the U.S. and Canada.  

There is significant momentum in the textile manufacturing industry toward developing sustainable solutions across the entire supply chain,” explains John Van Hulle, President, Global Color Additives and Inks, PolyOne. Further, several injection points can be added to run multiple colors or additives at the same time on a single extruder to enhance flexibility. In addition, these new solutions allow standard white polyester fiber producers with reactor spinning lines to produce colored products in-line, eliminating the need for a secondary aqueous dyeing process.        

How can I find the right polymer or additive for my needs?  Avient has a broad portfolio of sustainable solutions including CPSIA-compliant and non-phthalate compounds and additives that meet the requirements of the Act, without sacrificing performance or processability.  Depending on the results, additional analyses can be done to verify findings and insure accuracy, which helps reduce the potential for false positive results.

Additional weight, manufacturing challenges and ultimately, higher costs. In addition, the size required for an efficient metal heat sink may create design challenges that adversely affect nearby electronic components. And remember that polymers can offer a way to achieve lighter weight and improved design capabilities in addition to managing heat.

  – PolyOne Corporation (NYSE: POL), a premier global provider of specialized polymer materials, services and solutions, announced the addition of new capabilities to itsOnColor™ HC Plus portfolio in advance of the Medical Design and Manufacturing (MD&M) West show this week. James Petrie, marketing director for PolyOne Color and Additives, explained, “This expansion of the OnColor HC Plus portfolio reinforces our commitment to the healthcare industry and adds new alternatives for customers who seek to streamline their qualification, testing and supply chain management processes.” PolyOne is exhibiting a full range of polymer, colorant and additive healthcare solutions this week at MD&M West in booth 3213.

In addition, the design included more traditional features, such as four small support feet on the underside of the mouse for low-friction, easy-glide operation. Together, the manufacturer and Avient settled on a final formulation that could utilize existing tooling, thereby avoiding additional costs. In addition, the profit margin on this product was about 30% higher than that of other models.

With the addition of our Mexico site, we will be more accessible to customers in the Mexico and Central America regions and as a result, offer more opportunities for onsite collaboration to help streamline product development,” said Allan Bojorge, General Manager, North LATAM at Avient.   In addition to the two sites in Latin America, the company has four additional locations worldwide, including Merate (Italy), Singapore, and United States sites in West Chicago, Illinois, and Phoenix, Arizona.  

In addition, these concentrates are easy to process in the polymers most commonly selected for packaging,” said Christoph Palm, vice president, general manager, Color and Additives EMEA & India for PolyOne. These high gloss metallic effect colorants offer our customers an easy-to-implement solution that creates out-of-this-world effects,” added Gary Fielding, global marketing director, Color & Additives at PolyOne.
