SHANGHAI – At the 2016 Children-Baby-Maternity Expo (CBME), PolyOne is spotlighting a new, portable, folding baby bathtub from Hong Kong-based Karibu Baby Ltd. Karibu switched from a local supplier to PolyOne to obtain an advanced TPE made without bisphenol A (BPA), phthalates, or heavy metals. PolyOne colorants provide bright, appealing aesthetics to please children and parents, and help the product stand out from the competition during the purchasing decision.  

At the same time, L’Oréal had an objective is to have 100% of the plastics used in its packaging be made either from recycled or biobased sources by 2030. This means fewer color iterations, fewer color trials, and fewer plastic bottles traveling from one zone to the other.

Thankfully, a shift from a linear to circular economy is well underway. Devices that last longer have more chances for upcycling and reuse – diverting materials from the waste stream. From local support to responsible sourcing, your supply chain also has the potential to help you innovate and gain a competitive edge.
