At Avient, we strive to create a world-class sustainable organization, by conducting business in a way that meets the needs of
the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
Respect is about communication and
behavior, so we need to understand both.
We need to practice good judgment in this area.

Recognized for putting
the user experience first, Carbonerro first approached
Avient with the need for a paddle shaft that would
float, rather than sink, and use composites rather
than aluminum to provide an improved experience for
intermediate riders.
And Carbonerro also needed to keep costs
down to produce a more economical solution for the
non-professional enthusiast.

Metal gears are susceptible to corrosion, so they
degrade over time and need replacing.
Formulated with
internal lubrication they reduce the need for
external lubricants like oil and grease, reducing
part maintenance, so you can keep things moving.

Bio-polymers are already used with success in
different plastic products, notably in packaging,
but to be used in healthcare applications, they
need to be evaluated to the relevant protocols to
support regulatory compliance of the end article.
Avient is committed to the needs of our healthcare customers.

The initial formulations are
available in durometers 60 and 80 Shore A, and offer
comparable performance to traditional counterparts
to help customers meet application needs and
reduce total carbon emissions.
These sustainable materials are also customizable,
but changes to color or formulation to achieve
application-specific needs will require the product
carbon footprint to be recalculated.

But specific materials with exceptional
tensile and burst strength are needed to successfully
retrofit these existing pipelines to accelerate conversion
and prevent further environmental damage.
However, the company
needed a new material for this applicator that could
meet the necessary strength, flexibility, and adhesive
properties required for it to be easily deployed
in the field.

It also
needed to allow soldiers to quickly deploy and establish
positions of relative safety—even in remote locations.
It’s portable enough to be
airlifted into remote sites and provides quick protection
for troops with no additional equipment support
needed.

Compared to our prior adjusted EPS expectations, raw material deflation as
well as improving mix from composites and sustainable solutions positively impacted the quarter
and more than offset weaker demand conditions.”

“Sequentially, we’ve seen modest improvement in Asia, but demand across other regions remains
sluggish, particularly in Europe, as consumers remain cautious with continued inflation and rising
interest rates,” Mr.
Factors
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those implied by these forward-looking

environmental matters; our ability to achieve strategic objectives and successfully integrate
acquisitions, including Avient Protective Materials; an inability to raise or sustain prices for
products or services; our ability to pay regular quarterly cash dividends and the amounts and
timing of any future dividends; information systems failures and cyberattacks; amounts for cash
