This helps increase productivity and reduce energy consumption, helping to reduce carbon emissions. It increases polymer IV in the melt phase, allowing for: • Improved rPET quality and performance • Higher target IV’s • Reduced solid state polymerization time • Increased productivity It also aids in the drive towards the circular economy and helps Brand Owners achieve sustainability targets through: • Reduced carbon emissions • Increased rPET content Extruder PCR Flake SSP Reactor TIME IV rPET resin with increased IV With rePrize • Reduced SSP or oven time • Reduced yellowing IV lift in extruder Without rePrize Extruder PCR Flake SSP Reactor TIME IV rPET resin with increased IV With rePrize Without rePrize IV lift in extruder INCREASED TARGET IV ColorMatrix rePrize allows for increased target IV and increased strength of the rPET material, enabling a wider range of product applications including carbonated soft drinks (CSD).

Bottles for carbonated drinks require more strength when compared to bottles for still beverages. We helped them reduce their carbon footprint by reducing evaporation. Our goal is to implement procurement practices in the next five years that eliminates 45,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide annually.

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.
