Thermoplastic composites include these base resins, but are combined with a structural filler such as glass, wood, carbon or polymer fibers to enhance strength, rigidity and structure.
Recent Developments On January 2, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition of Fiber-Line, a global leader in polymer coated engineered fibers and composite materials, for $120.2 million, subject to a working capital adjustment and contingent earn-out consideration over a two-year period.
We also have what we believe is the broadest composite platform of solutions, which include a full range of products from long glass and carbon fiber technology to thermoset and thermoplastic composites.

Most films used in food packaging are either totally olefinic (polyethylene or polypropylene) or have multilayer structures in which the inner polymer surface is olefinic.
In 2010, Avient introduced the first anti-fog additive for polypropylene films that enabled anti-fog sealant film conversion without the need for surface treatment.
Today, thanks to a development cooperation between a leading global supplier of additive and colorant masterbatches and a major producer of polyolefin thermoplastics, packaging film producers have the opportunity to select film- grade polypropylene for sealing layers that are highly transparent, can be efficiently processed and converted, and yield film that provides an excellent seal and yet still enables easy opening.

Due to a lack of sorting and processing technology currently available, for example, most recycled plastics are reprocessed and downcycled into lower-value materials like carpet fibers; only 2% are recycled into products with a similar value to the original product.
