• Recycled plastics demand is expected to
grow at a 12% CAGR through 2030
• Demand is constrained by availability of
recycled content and will need investments
in both mechanical and chemical processes
• As recycled content becomes more
available, it is expected to make up 30% of

REDUCE
Avient Corporation 50
• Improving Fuel Economy - Incorporating innovative lighter-weight alternative
materials as a cost-effective way to reduce fuel consumption
• Reducing Energy Consumption and Dependence on Fossil Fuels -
Negative public perceptions of fossil fuels are challenging companies to utilize
alternative energy sources and also to reduce overall demand (consumption)
• Reducing Carbon Footprint - Companies are seeking assistance from their
suppliers to address the ever-increasing pressure to reduce their carbon footprint
• Lessening Environmental Impact - Manufacturers are looking to reduce
dependence on processes with high environmental impact such as the release of
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) during painting

Our process achieves higher “wet-out” of individual fiber filaments which is necessary to create a strong bond between the fiber and thermoplastic polymer.
Depending on the type of fiber being pultruded, tows have from 2,000 to 50,000 individual filaments of fiber with diameters ranging from 7 to 14 microns.
