specifically designed to work in conjunction with PlanetPak
sustainable containers.
HOW DOES THE
SYSTEM WORK?
FlexCart units work as
compact mobile metering
systems, designed to be easy to
use.

Avient’s development team went back
to work and quickly developed a flame-retardant grade that
meets UL requirements for a V0 rating.
Avient’s technical representatives worked with the tool
maker to provide insight on venting, gate placement and other
tool design concerns to minimize the potential for any tool-
related problems.
Later, when the manufacturer decided to expand production
of the connector to Asia, Avient transferred the product
formulation to its facility in Suzhou, China, and worked with
the manufacturer’s production facility there to ensure a
smooth transition.

PLANETPAK™ CONTAINERS AND
LN PACKAGING OPTIONS
The FlexCart suite of metering systems is designed
to work with the standardized PolyOne range of
packaging typically achieving 99% reliable yield on
continuous operating systems, while at the same
time also achieving a sustainable packaging format
in terms of full recyclability.
The FlexCart Micro unit,
due to its smaller footprint and reduced throughput
range, is designed to work with the LN molded polymer
containers—specifically the 10-liter pack.
