Patterson added, “Last year, we substantially expanded our composite offerings with the acquisition of Dyneema®, the world’s strongest fiber™, and I’m pleased to report integration is progressing exceptionally well.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures The Company uses both GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) and non-GAAP financial measures.
Examples include: • Dyneema®, the world’s strongest fiber™, enables unmatched levels of performance and protection for end-use applications, including ballistic personal protection, marine and sustainable infrastructure and outdoor sports • Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy • Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint • Sustainable infrastructure solutions that increase energy efficiency, renewable energy, natural resource conservation and fiber optic / 5G network accessibility Avient is certified ACC Responsible Care®, a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste and certified Great Place to Work®.

Fiberglass shafts were typically sourced from Asia and produced using a traditional mandrel rolling process, which slowed production and limited Carbonerro’s design freedom.
SUP pro paddles are typically equipped with carbon fiber shafts, but this option was too cost-prohibitive for the mid-level market.
Using this process together with an advanced composite polymer formulation from Avient would offer a better stiffness-to-weight ratio than that of aluminum and mandrel-made fiberglass.
