AMSTERDAM, Netherlands – May 10, 2023 – At today’s Plastics Recycling Show Europe (PRSE) 2023 event, Avient Corporation is showcasing a new sustainability technology to expand its comprehensive packaging solutions portfolio.   Avient will also be featuring its two Plastics Recycling Awards Europe Finalist solutions in the Product Technology Innovation of the Year category. Avient is certified ACC Responsible Care®, a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste and certified Great Place to Work®.

Our investments in R&D, resulting sustainable solutions portfolio, and support for solutions to the plastic waste problem are outward signs of that commitment.” 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 PolyOne employs approximately 6,900 associates, is certified ACC Responsible Care® and Great Place to Work®, and is a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste. 

As legislation sets new targets for increasing the recycled content in plastic packaging, safeguarding the quality of rPET is critical, especially for food-contact applications. Designing additives and recycling processes with circularity in mind is essential for the future of sustainable plastic packaging. The journey is challenging, but with continuous innovation and a commitment to sustainability, a circular economy for plastics is achievable.

With resources like Cycleworks™ Innovation Center for Plastic Recycling and Color Prediction Service, Avient continues to strengthen our expertise to enable our customers to meet their sustainability commitments. While we continue to make progress on this goal, we recognize that only 9% of the world’s plastic is recycled by end-users.* Through our alliances and partnerships, we remain committed to ending plastic waste in the environment though global investments and projects.

Oxidation and heat aging in plastics frequently cause a chain reaction that forms free radicals, breaks up the long polymer chains and degrades the appearance and performance of the plastic. At every stage of the plastic life cycle, from manufacturing through processing and end use, Cesa Nox antioxidant masterbatches help maintain shine and transparency while preventing yellowing, surface cracking and odors.

Cesa Withstand additives include organic and inorganic ingredients to inhibit the growth of bacteria, mold, and fungi on the plastic surface, providing uncompromising antimicrobial performance. The effective reduction of bacterial activity that can be achieved on TPU film laminated plastic and/or textile surfaces has been confirmed in extensive testing to international standards, including JIS 2801.
