Examples include: • Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life and quality of food, beverages, medicine and other perishable goods through high- performance materials that require less plastic • Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation • Breakthrough technologies that minimize wastewater, improve the recyclability of materials and advance a circular economy • Composite solutions to support accelerated growth of 5G / fiber-optic infrastructure investment as the world demands greater and faster connectivity Avient employs approximately 8,400 associates and is certified ACC Responsible Care® and a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste. Enable 100% of products manufactured for packaging applications to be recyclable or reusable. With the Clariant Masterbatch acquisition and divestment of the PP&S business, our exposure is now concentrated in less-cyclical and high-growth markets, with increased geographic diversification and a more specialized portfolio that can significantly expand EBITDA margins. 31 Avient reflects 2021 estimated EBITDA of $580M O U R VA LUATI O N V E R S U S P E E R S Avient Specialty Formulators Other Chemical/Specialty Companies 9.5 18.5 15.1 15.1 14.0 11.0 10.4 29.5 28.2 23.9 18.7 12.4 12.2 11.1 9.3 9.2 9.2 7.6 7.6 6.0 A vi e n t K W R P P G A V Y R P M F U L G C P A L B H X L E C L IF F F M C B N R A S H S C L E M N U N V R K R A C E H U N Median: 11.1xMedian: 14.6x S U M M A RY: W H Y I N V E S T I N AV I E N T ?

Recycle Solutions Remafin™ Fiber Colorants for PP Remafin™ Fiber Colorants for PP

When PET is recycled and transformed into a new product, it becomes rPET, or recycled PET. Most Recycled Plastic One major reason? It’s the most recycled plastic on the planet.

Produced using Sioplas technology, Syncure XLPE offers the processor significant advantages and economies over organic peroxide, radiation and reactor copolymer cross- linking processes.

Technora is produced by condensation polymerization of different copolymers, yielding a high modulus, low creep, and thermally stable fiber.

PET Recycling Eco-System What is Recycled Content? Recycle Value Chain - Black IR Sortable Packaging

Recycle Solutions Lower-haze PET packaging, less impact on recycle stream Enhancing the Recyclability of PET via Performance Additives

Recycled raw materials typically contain either post-consumer recycled (PCR) content or post-industrial recycled (PIR) content. Products that require a tight color tolerance can be difficult to match with recycled content.   Examples of this include creating a final product with recycled raw materials, or materials that enable consolidated parts, to ensure the disassembly and recycling are a controlled process. 

Chemical Recycling: Sometimes referred to as advanced or molecular recycling in the plastics world, chemical recycling of composites involves breaking down the composite’s matrix resin into molecular components by pyrolysis or solvolysis, allowing for the recovery of its fiber reinforcement. Mechanical Recycling: In contrast to chemical recycling, mechanical recycling does not affect the chemistry or composition of the composite being recycled. Recycling Materials into New Composites: Repurposing manufacturing waste to create new composites prevents it from going into landfills.

ColorMatrix™ Optica™ PET Blue Toners & Colors: developed for polyethylene terephthalate (PET) resins and preforms, designed to enhance recyclability and reduce yellowing that occurs during the recycling process. Gravi-Tech™ Density Modified PP-Based Formulations: new, high-impact metallization grades developed to replace die-cast or machined metals while delivering the look and weighted feel of metal in premium brand applications. Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy
