The need for more sustainable solutions to existing materials is driven by a range of factors, from increased performance requirements to meeting consumer preferences to addressing a tightening regulatory environment. Avient has developed technologies to address these needs, including composites that are lightweight to decrease carbon emissions, functional additives that lightweight or improve the recycle content of plastic packaging, and biobased solutions that lower product carbon footprint.

To help address these needs in North America and globally, Avient offers a broad portfolio of specialty formulations including UL 94 recognized colorants, flame retardants, antimicrobial technology, special visual effects, and more.   Avient materials can address key EVSE performance, function, and design areas including outdoor durability, impact resistance, thermal management, and fire safety.

This makes reducing water use, wastewater, and energy/CO₂ the most urgent priorities to address in the textile value chain. One way clothing and footwear producers are working to address these priorities is by using more recycled raw materials, such as recycled polyester from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles, within their synthetic fibers.
