The new reSound™ NF bio-filled grades are based on polymers such as polypropylene (PP) with 15 to 20 percent bio-based filler.
The new bio-filled polymer from Avient has enabled us to reduce the carbon footprint of a range of our products by reducing the consumption of petroleum-based polymers.

When a goal is to develop a more sustainable end product, the preferred raw material can be either bio-based or recycled.
It is based on the idea of designing a product with components that can be repaired, replaced, or reused.
Material changes occur when a sustainable polymer can provide a similar performance to petroleum-based polymers.

They selected a TPE-based impact modifier that could be used at a loading level five percentage points below the current material while still meeting all of the performance requirements, including higher stiffness.
In addition, reducing the tote wall thickness resulted in a savings of about $470,000 a year, based on reduction in material usage and lower unit costs for fuel to transport products to retailers.
