Adding TPE production enables the company to support customers in the country even more quickly and with a broader portfolio of domestically manufactured materials. With the most recent addition of TPE production, PolyOne enables manufacturers to source all of their specialty polymer requirements from a single domestic source. We’re very excited to build upon our momentum in India with domestic production of TPEs,” said Vikas Vij, managing director India at PolyOne.

The Brooks design team members turned to Avient for help developing a solution that would work seamlessly with Brooks’ proprietary TPE blend used in the shoe's midsoles.  Working together, teams from both companies created a customized TPE material that matched the performance of the Brooks TPE blend. Switching to Avient's GLS™ TPEs enabled Brooks to move to a single injection molding process, yielding a 30-40 percent reduction in energy usage and a projected savings of $80,000 to $100,000 annually.
