A leading supplier of advanced automotive technologies approached Avient to create a new olefinic material for an HVAC damper. In addition to the lighter weight requirement, the material needed to resist warpage after molding, a common issue for thin walled plastic parts. In addition, the new material provides anti-static properties and low VOC levels, which helps the system adhere to regulations such as the Vehicle Interior Air Quality (VIAQ) standard.

BIC introduced its sustainability program more than 15 years ago. The company’s approach to product design is deeply rooted in the principles of the circular economy and BIC’s 4R philosophy: reducing the amount of raw materials, including as much recycled or alternative materials as possible, making more refillable products, and improving the recyclability of both products and packaging. When BIC engineers were challenged to incorporate more recycled materials in a new sustainable women’s razor, they found answers in Avient’s sustainable solutions.

After grabbing more than 8% of the market within six months of the release of its flagship vehicle, the engineers at a game-changing electric car manufacturer went back to work fine-tuning the details. The pre-formulated material boasted one more important property: it was available for just-in-time delivery. These improvements freed working capital for other projects, and helped keep production running at a consistent rate for annual savings estimated by the company at more than $200,000 a year.

When PolyCase Ammunition was getting ready to produce its new line of high performance ammunition, the project team knew they needed a material that would be easily enable them to produce their patent-pending, injection molded projectile designs that function as well or better than conventional lead-core projectiles.  After experimenting with competitive materials, PolyCase approached Avient with their challenge.
