Our products and their impact can be found making a positive difference in nearly every industry such as: • Delivering light-weighting benefits in rail, auto, and aerospace to improve fuel efficiency • Extending shelf-life and recyclability or food and beverage packaging to reduce spoilage and waste • Advancing healthcare innovation of medical devices with materials that enable disinfection as well as minimize the spread of infection Avient CDP Climate Change Questionnaire 2021 Tuesday, August 3, 2021 81 • In addition, specialized polymer and composite solutions are also helping ensure that customers’ sustainable products come to life, as Avient materials can be used in the design of innovative renewable technologies such as wind turbines and solar panels.

We take 3 strategies to enable our customers to lower their carbon footprint: Reduce the carbon footprint of the polymer • Enable expanded use of recycled content • Expand product portfolio to include more bio/renewable-based resources • Enable the use of more carbon-efficient alternatives Reduce the carbon impact during end-use • Lightweighting • Leverage design expertise to drive product efficiencies Improve the recycling process • Upgrade downcycled material to a higher quality level • Stabilize the polymers in the recycling process Our products and their impact can be found making a positive difference in nearly every industry such as: • Delivering light-weighting benefits in rail, auto, and aerospace to improve fuel efficiency Avient CDP Climate Change Questionnaire 2022 Friday, July 29, 2022 112 • Extending shelf-life and recyclability or food and beverage packaging to reduce spoilage and waste • Advancing healthcare innovation of medical devices with materials that enable disinfection as well as minimize the spread of infection • In addition, specialized polymer and composite solutions are also helping ensure that customers’ sustainable products come to life, as Avient materials can be used in the design of innovative renewable technologies such as wind turbines and solar panels.

This allowed us to establish the PolyOne Advanced Composites platform, from which we deliver on the demanding performance needs of high-profile, innovative products— from Corvettes to crossbows, and ballistic panels to prosthetics.

Combined with the rooftop panels we installed in prior years, our Assesse facility now draws 80% of its required production energy from solar and wind sources.
