BIC Amplifies Sustainable Design with Avient Recycled-Content Material for Soleil Click 5 Women’s Razor Handle
This material, also known as a thermoplastic elastomer, has a soft, grippy feel and is highly colorable.
The company’s approach to product design is deeply rooted in the principles of the circular economy and BIC’s 4R philosophy: reducing the amount of raw materials, including as much recycled or alternative materials as possible, making more refillable products, and improving the recyclability of both products and packaging.

These advanced materials will help increase speed to market and design flexibility for 5G base station antenna manufacturers.
New customizable Edgetek Formulations for 5G feature specific Dk values and reduced dissipation factors (Df), enabling faster design qualification and shorter lead times.
Both materials can help 5G base station antenna manufactures to streamline their design and process development.
