Recycling Materials into New Composites: Repurposing manufacturing waste to create new composites prevents it from going into landfills. For instance, Avient engineers successfully used 100% PCR PET in composite unidirectional tapes and laminates, and PCR nylon 6 from reclaimed fishing nets in a LFT composite. From manufacturers and engineers to end-users, everyone has a role to play in achieving sustainability goals, and everyone must benefit to be truly sustainable.
