POMMERLOCH, Luxembourg – March 21, 2024 – Avient Corporation, a premier provider of specialized and sustainable materials solutions and services, today announced the introduction of new Gravi-Tech™ Density Modified Formulation grades with low shrinkage, offering luxury packaging customers an alternative to acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) based materials.
While polypropylene (PP) is widely accepted in the packaging industry, it has higher shrinkage rates than ABS, making it challenging to use as a direct replacement for existing molds.
