The manufacturer was working with Avient on other projects, so it brought together experts from both companies to work on identifying a material that would reduce warpage and improve productivity. Switching from two blended resins to a single material delivered several key benefits to the manufacturer, including: Improved yield rates: Changing from a blended solution to a single material reduced the manufacturer’s scrap rate by 50 percent.
