Liquid melt-extrusion color permits late-stage color injection, reducing waste and changeover times in the manufacturing process, and offering producers the flexibility to create as little as 50kg of fiber within the same simple process.
The technology also allows several injection points on a single spinning line, so that multiple colors can be produced at the same time.
For example, our InVisiO™ color & design services offer insights and direction that inspire creativity in the use of colorants and special effects.

The design team had two objectives: improve vibration damping performance of the boot to deliver a better user experience, and streamline manufacturing of the part to reduce system costs.
At the time, the boot was injection molded from acrylonitrile-ethylene-styrene (AES) as a standalone part and assembled to the housing separately.
Avient’s team recommended the use of overmolding (two-shot injection molding) to integrate the boot with the saw housing, and trialed several products before customizing a grade from its portfolio.
