Liquid colorants are helping to minimize the environmental impact of coloring in a number of ways: • Liquid carrier systems are typically made largely from natural oil-based renewable sources • Liquid systems can be dosed with the highest degree of accuracy and control, minimizing wastage through overdosing • ColorMatrix’s latest PLANETPAK™ delivery packs have a fully recyclable outer and are engineered to enable 99% product recovery allowing further efficiencies to be made • The concentrated nature of liquid colorant systems mean that inventory requirements are inherently very low.

Examples include: • Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy • Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint • Sustainable infrastructure solutions that increase energy efficiency, renewable energy, natural resource conservation and fiber optic / 5G network accessibility Avient employs approximately 9,300 associates and is certified ACC Responsible Care® and a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste.
