PET packaging can be easily recycled, yet plastic packaging waste in landfills and oceans is increasing worldwide. During the recycling process, aesthetics and oxygen scavenging performance can be negatively affected. The scavenger in the closure can be separated from the PET during recycling and closures are 100% compatible with the closure recycle stream.

Manufacturers use diverse PCR sources with differing colors, darkness and opacity, while specific PCR grade availability can be unreliable. All color-related factors can vary within a brand, making a consistent coloration difficult, time-consuming and costly. Avient developed a Color Simulation Tool to calculate the final color of a PCR-based end article and that can be used to:

Materials can influence consumers’ experience with your product, and ultimately, your brand. Though silicone can create complex surface textures, it is expensive and difficult to process. Chemically compatible TPEs can help brand owners and converters satisfy functional needs and enhance cosmetic packaging applications in three primary ways:

Highly specialized solutions, LND coatings add application flexibility as they can also be used as an antistatic coating on PTFE impregnated glass cloth, or as a resistance carrier for heating bands. Can be used as an antistatic coating Explore Colorant Chromatics's broad portfolio, markets and applications, and how Avient can provide the highest levels of service (English language version).

An additive that provides broadband UV blocking can be used to meet content protection requirements no matter where your production is located. This can help brand owners meet the increasing global demand for healthier drinks with fewer preservatives and stabilizing compounds.  Where UV barrier addition rates are low, they can also offer cost and process efficiencies over opaque coloration or sleeve shrink wrapping.

These factors can help determine which material best suits a particular application, based on processing and functional requirements. These products can operate at high temperatures and have strong mechanical properties. These parts can be molded with assembly features in place to reduce product fabrication and secondary operations.

Additives can be combined with colors into a single masterbatch for convenience. Can be combined with color Find out how the way you dye fibers can have an impact on the sustainability of your fibers.
