The Quantum™ Motor is one such product, a universal cutting tool in the meat processing industry that helps recover lean meat from fat and tissue. THE SOLUTION Avient proactively worked with Bettcher’s product development team to fully understand the yoke specifications to help ensure end-product quality would remain unparalleled in the market. Avient’s team helped mitigate that risk through education, advanced testing and technical expertise.

Additionally, other standard portfolios, such as colors for ophthalmic closures or white for pharmaceutical packaging, help fast-track the coloration of specific healthcare applications. Nucleating solutions Mevopur nucleating agents help produce thinner walls in polyolefin applications while maintaining main mechanical properties and stability of the end article. Nucleating solutions can also help reduce MVTR (Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate) in HDPE and eliminate potential warpage influence of certain pigments.
