Additionally, 50 of our manufacturing sites globally sent no waste to landfills in 2024. Waste minimization plans are impacted by several factors, including raw materials utilized, materials produced, manufacturing process, and location. On a daily basis, plant personnel monitor structural controls and work practices at our facilities via routine daily rounds.

Avient’s Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) internal guidelines govern the manufacture of intermediate products for our customer’s use in making food, drug and medical (FDM) final product applications.  As an intermediate supplier, Avient’s manufacturing facilities are not required to register with nor be directly held to the FDA’s specific good manufacturing practice requirements. Avient plant personnel involved in making products for FDM use by our customers undergo initial and annual training on the particular processes and procedures involved in the manufacture of intermediate products for FDM markets.

A key part of our management systems are internal audit and review programs, which periodically examine plant operations and develop recommendations to enhance performance. Our EH&S Security Management System includes forward-planning process which reviews potential environmental and community impact of our manufacturing operations and identifies opportunities to improve the performance of our operations and comply with current and anticipated regulations.

Based on polymers such as polypropylene (PP), the new formulations also include a natural filler made from renewable plant sources that would otherwise go to waste. Avient Design: This specialized group of industrial designers and project engineers provides critical design and material insights, enabling customers to produce products that are designed with sustainability in mind, are easier to manufacture, and are more competitive.

The second, Gravi-Tech™ BIO Bio-based Formulations, contains bio-based resin from renewable plant sources. Gravi-Tech REC Recycled Formulations and Gravi-Tech BIO Bio-based Formulations are currently manufactured in Europe and are commercially available globally.  

Gravi-Tech™ BIO Bio-Based Formulations Gravi-Tech™ BIO bio-based formulations are density modified engineered polymers that contain partially bio-based resin from renewable plant sources. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Customized density offering a wide range of specific gravities (1.5–11 gm/cm3) • Formulated with partially bio-based resin from renewable plant sources • Broad modulus range, from very flexible to very rigid grades • Corrosion resistance that withstands oxidization for long-term use and benefit • Chemical resistance that can be adapted depending on base resin as required • Provides visual surface effects, aesthetics and cool touch • Design flexibility and processing ease • Food contact compliance available MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS Applications in packaging and consumer goods in which a more sustainable solution is preferred: • Cosmetic caps and closures • Perfume caps • Spirit bottle caps • Luxury boxes • Handles and knobs SUSTAINABILITY BENEFITS • Formulated with partially bio-based resin from renewable plant sources • Reduces waste and supports the circular economy • Reduces carbon footprint compared to fossil feedstock alternatives • Simplifies manufacturing and lowers cost versus metal PRODUCT BULLETIN CHARACTERISTICS UNITS Gravi-Tech BIO GT5200-5077 FD Natural Gravi-Tech BIO RS5200-5001 RS FD Natural Gravi-Tech BIO RS5200-5001 RS FD Natural X1 Gravi-Tech BIO GT5200-5003 FD Black Gravi-Tech BIO GT5200-5004 FD Black Gravi-Tech BIO GT5200-5002 FD Black Base Resin Bio-based PP Bio-based PP Bio-based PP Bio-based PP Bio-based PP Bio-based PP Recycled Content/Filler g/cm Mineral Mineral Mineral Metallic Metallic Metallic Density (ISO 1183) g/ccm 1.90 2.0 2.0 2.0 2.5 3.0 AVAILABLE GRADES Copyright © 2023, Avient Corporation.
