As part of the realignment, PolyOne will close manufacturing plants located in Diadema and Joinville, Brazil. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those implied by these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: the effect on foreign operations of currency fluctuations, tariffs, and other political, economic and regulatory risks; changes in polymer consumption growth rates where the Company conducts business; changes in global industry capacity or in the rate at which anticipated changes in industry capacity come online; fluctuations in raw material prices, quality and supply and in energy prices and supply; production outages or material costs associated with scheduled or unscheduled maintenance programs; unanticipated developments that could occur with respect to contingencies such as litigation and environmental matters, including any developments that would require any increase in the Company’s costs and/or reserves for such contingencies; an inability to achieve or delays in achieving or achievement of less than the anticipated financial benefit from initiatives related to working capital reductions, cost reductions, and employee productivity goals; an inability to raise or sustain prices for products or services; an inability to maintain appropriate relations with unions and employees; the speed and extent of an economic recovery, including the recovery of the housing markets; the financial condition of the Company’s customers, including the ability of customers (especially those that may be highly leveraged and those with inadequate liquidity) to maintain their credit availability; disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the credit markets that may limit the Company’s access to capital; other factors affecting the Company’s business beyond the Company’s control, including, without limitation, changes in the general economy, changes in interest rates and changes in the rate of inflation; the Company’s ability to realize anticipated savings and operational benefits from the realignment of assets, including the planned closure of certain manufacturing facilities; the timing of closings and shifts of production to new facilities related to asset realignments and any unforeseen disruptions of service or quality caused by such closings and/or production shifts; the timing of the recognition of the charges that will be incurred; separation and severance amounts and plant exit costs that differ from original estimates; amounts for non-cash charges related to asset write-offs, asset impairments, and accelerated depreciation realignments of property, plant and equipment, that differ from original estimates; the Company’s ability to identify and evaluate acquisition targets and consummate acquisitions; the ability to successfully integrate acquired companies into the Company’s operations, retain the management teams of acquired companies, and retain relationships with customers of acquired companies, including, without limitation, Spartech Corporation; and other factors described in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 under Item 1A, “Risk Factors.” You are advised to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our reports on Form 10-Q, 8-K and 10-K that we provide to the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Lactra™ SX Light Blocking Additive: In solid masterbatch form, this additive provides 99.99% UV and visible light blocking and protection for liquid dairy contents when added to monolayer PET bottles.

As part of that effort, it entered the National Partnership for Environmental Priorities program, which encourages organizations to form voluntary partnerships with the EPA to reduce the use and release of 31 priority chemicals, including lead. It planned to reduce the amount of lead processed at its Plant No. 2 by 20 percent – or 20,000 pounds – through substituting reduced-lead or lead-free compounds and color concentrates. It also planned to reduce lead processing at its Plant No. 3 by 25 percent – or 10,500 pounds – through solderless product offerings.

Plastics inherently resist corrosion, eliminating concerns about rust and other forms of oxidation that can compromise metal components. In addition, long fibers form a “3D network” within a molded part; this network supports parts even when a polymer begins to soften (creep), meaning LFTs are an excellent replacement for metal components in portions of the vehicle subject to high stress from extreme temperatures or pressure.

Plastics and ultraviolet (UV) light don’t always mix. These unique additives have been shown to have excellent results in a number of processes, including injection molding, extrusion, thermoforming, and vacuum forming.

Our custom color and additive concentrates are available in solid and liquid form. Because our collaborative experts always deliver the specialty polymer formulations, services, and sustainable material solutions that help improve those applications from R & D through production.

Biopolymers generally derive from renewable sources such as plants, corn, wheat, straw, and sugar cane.
