Buying behavior is influenced significantly by color, and creative decision-makers who choose inspirations derived from societal trends can better engage with today’s consumers,” said Fernando Sanchez, director, global marketing, PolyOne Global Color and Additives. Our collections draw from global megatrends and insights in color research to develop palettes that capture the current zeitgeist for designers and developers.” As we move beyond merely meeting our physical needs toward achieving accountability and morality, we’re realistic that this change may not happen in a heartbeat.

Europe now accounts for 25 percent of global bioplastics production, a figure set to increase to 30 percent by 2024, according to the European Bioplastics Association. Fueling this growth, in part, are public commitments from brands across a range of industries to increase their use of recycled plastics. reSound™ OM (overmolding) thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) utilize between 40 and 50 percent bio-renewable content derived from sugarcane, and offer hardness levels and performance comparable to standard TPEs.

European Parliament has proposed targets for the End-of-Life Vehicles (ELV) Directive that outline a minimum of 25% of the plastic used to build new vehicles sold from 2030 must come from recycled sources. Of that recycled content, a minimum of 25% (6.25% overall) must come from circular or closed-loop feedstock (from within the automotive industry). Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

Equipment maintenance: Maintaining plastisol mixing equipment up to industry standards may prove costly, and can require a significant amount of time from production operators. You’ll need to account for added inventory planning steps and raw material delivery cycles.

Swellcoat Blocker yarns provide water-blocked strength reinforcements for cable designs and can absorb up to 15x its weight. Some of the information arises from laboratory work with small-scale equipment which may not provide a reliable indication of performance or properties obtained or obtainable on larger-scale equipment. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
