Don’t wait too long to select materials: Engage with a polymer supplier early on in the design process to specify the exact material attributes you need.
Knowledgeable suppliers can also open your eyes to material possibilities you may not have considered, either with new formulations or additives and fillers.
How Avient can help: You can rely on the expertise we’ve gained in developing automotive material solutions for a wide range of electrical and lighting applications.

Variations in the aesthetic appearance of rPET are caused by multiple heat cycles, as the material is recovered and reused.
In addition, processing efficiencies are reduced as the material is recycled.
Examples include:
• Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life and quality of food, beverages, medicine and other perishable goods through high-performance materials that require less plastic
• Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation
