Avient introduces recycled-content composite materials and showcases advanced composites and engineered fibers at JEC World 2022 in Paris. In addition, Avient will also highlight composite materials and engineered-fiber solutions that offer high strength, weight reduction, and corrosion resistance for products across a broad range of industries and markets: Fiber-Line™ pultruded rods and custom extrusion-coated rods and fibers

Avient PlastiComp Complēt™ & OnForce™ long fiber composite pellets are manufactured using a pultrusion process.  Our process achieves higher “wet-out” of individual fiber filaments which is necessary to create a strong bond between the fiber and thermoplastic polymer.
