https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2023-06/EZR Gun Grip Case Study.pdf
EZR Sport wanted a flexible foam grip that could be
chemically resistant to gun oil and diethyltoluamide
or DEET (the most common active chemical ingredient
in insect repellents), UV resistant for longer-lasting
aesthetics, and compliant with California’s Proposition
65 law (requiring businesses to provide warnings to
Californians about significant exposures to chemicals
that cause cancer, congenital disabilities or other
reproductive harm).
THE SOLUTION
Avient worked with EZR Sport to develop a solution
and CORE™ Non-Phthalate Plastisols were chosen
as a potential fit.

PolyOne GLS Thermoplastic Elastomers recently worked with one of the largest infant care brands in Japan to develop a new feeding set for infants and toddlers.
In addition, this TPE material uses existing molds, eliminating the cost of new molds and reducing development time, enabling the manufacturer to enjoy more cost-efficient production without delay while driving brand growth.

We completed the acquisition of
APM and the sale of our Distribution business, and are using the net proceeds to pay down near-
term maturing debt as previously announced.”
Over the last few
years, we have overhauled our portfolio by divesting more cyclical, less specialized businesses
and made significant investments in innovation, composites and sustainable solutions,” Mr.
Avient's chief operating decision maker
uses this financial measure to monitor and evaluate the ongoing performance of the Company
and each business segment and to allocate resources.
