Thermoplastic recycled-content composites can further support a circular economy and help customers lessen their environmental impact.
For example, incorporating post-consumer recycled (PCR) resin into composite materials such as unidirectional tape can help reduce the carbon footprint of those composites.

https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/Avient Climate Change Scenario Analysis Summary 2022.pdf
By 2030, Avient will enable 100% of our products manufactured for packaging applications to be recyclable or reusable to advance the circular economy, for which
approximately 90% of Avient’s products met this criteria in 2020.
In support of advancing the circular economy, our design expertise and material science, helps our customers
reduce material usage, enable recyclability, increase recycle content, and improve physical performance
We enable reduced carbon
footprint technologies, improved recyclability, increased recycle content, and bio-derived solutions

ColorMatrix™ rePrize is a PET compatible formulated liquid dispersion, designed to
increase the polymer chain length via reactive extrusion.
This results in an increase
in both the polymer intrinsic and melt viscosity. rePrize is suited to applications in:
• PET monolayer sheet
• PET multilayered sheet
• PET foamed sheet
rePrize can be used to optimise sheet manufacturing processes and product quality,
whilst allowing for increased levels of recycle, contributing towards improved
sustainability and reduced costs

Good clarity and recyclability
Ultimate UV dosing is highly consistent offering
excellent part clarity with a superior aesthetic.
It has no negative effect on recyclability, physical
performance characteristics or color of the
recycled material.
In some situations the Ultimate UV
range can vastly improve both the processing
and mechanical properties of packaging
incorporating recycled material.
