Brand owners and packaging manufacturers who
need to use increased levels of rPET content, in
support of their sustainability goals and the circular
economy, should benefit from this solution.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2025-03/ColorMatrix Smartheat RHC Technical Bulletin.pdf
Suitable for PET
and rPET preforms and bottles, it can be added to
preforms providing the following benefits:
• Improved blowing performance
• Potential for increased rPET content
• Increased mechanical strength
• Potential for lightweighting
• Improved performance through the
recycle process
• Reduced energy consumption
• No pre-drying requirements
SmartHeat RHC can contribute towards improved
productivity, reduced manufacturing costs,
improved sustainability, and can broaden the scope
for bottle design.

Weight Reduction
• LFT has lower density vs. metal, but still meets
structural performance requirements
• Lightweighting helps meet sustainability goals
related to lower fuel consumption and extended
vehicle range
Design Flexibility
• Injection molding allows for complex geometries
and part consolidation
• Advanced modeling and computer-aided
engineering (CAE) tools for long fiber composites
help validate and optimize part design
