POMMERLOCH, Luxembourg – June 17, 2020 – Today, PolyOne announced it is adding production of both post-industrial recycled nylon grades (Nymax™ PIR)  and bio-based thermoplastic elastomers (reSound™ OM) in Europe. 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. These check the major requirement boxes for applications such as cosmetics packaging, personal care products, and consumer electronics.

Our knives are not just a new introduction to the world of high-end sporting gear, but also serve as our company’s flagship products. Getting involved early in the product development process with Avanona was key to the success of this project,” added Holger Kronimus, vice president Europe and general manager, Specialty Engineered Materials, Europe at PolyOne. PolyOne is committed to delivering the ultimate polymer materials for manufacturers of outdoor products and solutions, collaborating with these customers to improve the function of high performance, high stakes equipment.
