Traditional painting processes for plastics are costly, and they require additional expense to eliminate resulting VOC emissions,” said Say Eng Lee, general manager of the Color Asia of PolyOne. With uniquely shaped and sized pigment particles, they create metallic shades that replicate the look of paint to help customers replace painted metal parts or even plating on plastic parts.

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.

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.
