We have identified eight ways our sustainable solutions meet customers’ innovation and sustainability goals, and we continue to invest in and expand these categories to continue our track record of growth. PolyOne’s internal EHS&S tracking system is used as a central tool for measuring and monitoring progress toward short, mid, and long-term objectives. Waste management systems track the amounts and type of wastes generated by each facility and how it is managed.

Supplier approval status shall be updated based on the results of the supplier assessment and on-site audit, if performed. 3.2 Performance Evaluation Avient utilizes the vendor scorecard system (and associated Supplier Performance Report) which records and tracks supplier performance related to delivery, product quality and purchase order (PO) requirements.

We’ve enhanced our leadership team with a new Chief Technology Officer, SVP of New Business Development & Marketing Excellence, SVP and General Counsel, and Chief Information Officer, all with proven track records and expertise in their respective fields.

Sure, you can grind up a tire into a material for the track around a high school, but the material itself can’t be changed or transformed into a completely new and recyclable product.
