Avient’s team provided a variety of value-
added technical services, including assistance with tool
development, process optimization and testing.
New material = competitive differentiator:
HellermannTyton is able to set its offering apart from
the competition by adding significant value, particularly
lighter weight and lower system costs

Beyond applicators, TPEs in packaging can be used
to communicate an upscale message for premium
products, or they can emphasize enhancements or
value-added features for everyday products.
Most
packaging doesn’t take advantage of the sense
of touch to make that connection, so adding
color and texture with soft touch materials
can help your package stand out from the
competition on store shelves.

THE SOLUTION
When added to PET preforms or rPET, ColorMatrix
Optica blue toners and color formulations work to
correct any yellowing or color variation, resulting
in packaging that maintains a neutral or blue color
with improved quality and performance.
Since the formulation also has improved heat
stability, it will not accelerate yellowing during the
recycling process, and will also help reduce energy
consumption and improve bottle mechanical
strength by incorporating all the added benefits
from the SmartHeat RHC technology.

Adding surface texture can make harder grade TPEs feel softer to the touch, so your product can benefit from both qualities.
Colorants added in the mixing phase of the manufacturing process can generate transparent, translucent or opaque colors.
UV attack by sunlight can be prevented by adding UV stabilizers to polymeric materials.
