Our teams researched the best combination of additive and carrier resin for the application.
Because the toothbrushes were molded in both clear and opaque resins, the team had to explore two different avenues—one that preserved clarity and one that retained opacity.
As an added benefit, Avient designed a universal carrier that enabled the manufacturer to use the same additives across a variety of olefins, elastomers, and other resins.

Bottles and closures have traditionally been made using virgin resin.
Injection and fill pressures will be different with PCR versus virgin resin due to viscosity inconsistencies of the PCR
Incorporating PCR into closures is reported to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 71% over the use of virgin resin¹.
