In addition, the TPV supplier was not providing sufficient quantities of the material consistently, threatening the manufacturer’s ability to meet its own customer’s needs on time. In addition to its excellent colorability and high flow, the Versalloy solution possessed a lower specific gravity and resulted in lower scrap rates compared to the competitive TPV, providing the opportunity to reduce system costs. With Avient’s assistance and experience in medical device applications, the manufacturer immediately realized the following lifts:

The auto parts maker reached out to Avient, which was already was providing it with specialty materials. After making the switch to OnColor FX Smartbatch color and additive concentrates, the supplier achieved a number of significant benefits: In addition, equipment costs showed a quick return on investment (ROI) because of the material savings.

ONCOLOR™ IR SORTABLE BLACK COLORANT eliminates carbon black to allow reclaimed black plastics, such as those found in food trays, to be detected by automated sorters and properly recycled. PolyOne has developed additives that reduce the amount of plastic needed to make the bottle, as well as SMARTHEAT™ INFRARED ABSORBERS—additives that reduce the amount of energy required during bottle manufacture. Our performance and barrier additives portfolio has also grown significantly with the addition of great companies like ColorMatrix and IQAP.
