This will increase accessibility to these sustainability-supporting, REACH-compliant solutions for customers in Middle Eastern countries.
These PA6-based Nymax REC formulations contain between 20 and 100 percent recycled content from registered sources approved by the European Union regulation for Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH), such as recycled textiles.
Expanding production of these grades to Istanbul, using locally sourced recycled content, means we can offer Turkish and Middle Eastern countries these REACH-compliant solutions while helping to reduce the environmental impact of transporting these materials,” said Matt Mitchell, Director, Global Marketing of Specialty Engineered Materials at Avient.
