Adding this technology to bottle preforms enables improved recyclability and reduces energy consumption by up to 30% compared with reheat-free PET resin for substantial production cost savings.  Environmental and raw material gains can be achieved throughout the packaging lifecycle, including the recycling stream. Inherent blue toning properties help reduce the appearance of yellowing to maintain clarity, while the additive also retains its reheat capability even after long-term recycling.

Made with post-consumer recycled (PCR) polyolefin as a carrier resin, Rejoin PCR Masterbatch can enable a bottle or part to be manufactured from 100 percent PCR.  This means that at typical let-down ratios, the finished product would contain 3 to 5 percent non-recycled plastic. It can be added during production using standard equipment with little to no impact on processing, and allows for full recyclability of the end product.

Protecting these electronics with durable housings that won’t dramatically increase the overall weight of the car can be challenging. Electronics 42 Sustainability Report | 2018 PolyOne is a total polymer solutions provider for the wire and cable industry. Custom products can be formulated with recycled PP and PE for improved recyclability, plus the portfolio includes halogen and non-halogen products.

Avient’s Taoyuan production site in Taiwan recently achieved full compliance with the Global Recycled Standard (GRS) 4.0. The GRS-certified color and additive solutions contain a required percentage of pre-consumer or post-consumer recycled polyester primarily from recycled PET flakes. Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy  

This includes sustainable solutions that can enable recycling, support human health and safety, reduce energy use, and offer eco-conscious alternatives to traditional methods.   The colorants, provided as concentrate pellets, are added to virgin or recycled polymers during yarn manufacturing as a one-in-one manufacturing/dyeing process. Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy  

Avient will highlight solutions and services for lightweighting, recycling, biopolymers, and more, including:   ColorMatrix™ SmartHeat™: liquid dispersion process aids that can improve the recyclability of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles with minimal impact on aesthetics Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy

Cesa™ Nox A4R Additive for Enhanced Recycling: developed to stabilize recycled polyolefins and protect them from degradation during processing, enabling the incorporation of increased recycled content into packaging films, maintaining high-quality levels of PCR and helping promote a more circular economy Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy
