Homepage // News Center // PolyOne Protects Polymer Textiles from the Sun, Letting Colors and Performance Shine Through Combining colorants with performance-boosting additives, these formulations help to protect non-woven polymer fabrics, fibers and filaments from UV light-induced degradation without any tradeoffs in performance.

Forward-looking statements give current expectations or forecasts of future events and are not guarantees of future performance. Avient’s chief operating decision maker uses these financial measures to monitor and evaluate the ongoing performance of the Company and each business segment and to allocate resources. Management believes this provides comparability of the performance of the combined businesses.

To meet the stringent regulatory and application requirements of a dynamic wire & cable industry, it is vital to understand how material technologies contribute to performance, fire safety, connectivity, and durability. At Avient, we have engineered polymers, standard and high-temperature colorants and additives, and high-performance fibers for accelerating deployment, delivering reliability, boosting function, and enhancing product protection.
