HOUSEHOLD PACKAGING
We’ve developed a line of chemical resistant thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) that do not discolor, etch, crack or
delaminate.
Differentiation – Add color and texture
to stand out from the competition
• Recyclable – TPEs are compatible with most
municipal recycle streams
• Global Support – Avient is a global supplier
with manufacturing and technical support in
Europe, Asia and North America

reSound™ OM Thermoplastic Elastomers
Bio-based TPEs Deliver on Performance
Designed to support sustainability goals, the
reSound OM TPE formulations utilize between
40 and 50 percent bio-renewable content derived
from sugarcane and offer hardness levels and
property retention comparable to traditional
petroleum-based TPEs.
Available in four overmolding grades compatible
with polypropylene (PP), and one grade that is
suited for overmolding onto ABS, all grades are
formulated for durability, delivering property
retention and UV resistance comparable to
traditional TPEs.
