What if you had more
design freedom when tackling your next big idea for
water sports by using advanced composite materials,
thus passing on a lighter, higher performing product to
the consumer?
Give your outdoor gear that extra grit so that it will
stay the course:
• Provide high-impact strength and
weatherability with materials like continuous
fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite
tapes and laminates
• Keep your exterior finishes gleaming with
material performance enhancements like
scratch and mar resistance and UV stable
additives
• Make your products safer with performance
additives that provide flame resistance and
antimicrobial properties

When your customers are exhausted from a long
day on the trail, the last things they want to worry
about are body aches or physical discomfort.
Soft-touch thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs)
overmolded onto a lightweight paddleshaft made of
Avient’s advanced composite materials can help add
to the experience and avoid annoyances such
as blisters.
