One way to achieve this is to switch to bio-polymers where possible. 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 provides pre-tested color and additive concentrates based on bio-polymers to minimize the risk of non-compliance and support a more sustainable profile for plastic products used in the healthcare industry.

OnColor™ IR Sortable Black Infrared Sortable Black for Recyclable Packaging OnColor™ Infrared Sortable Black for Recyclable Packaging is a black colorant created without the addition of carbon black pigment. In the presence of carbon black, currently used to color most black packaging, all the wavelengths are absorbed and black polymers can’t be identified, inevitably keeping black packaging out of recycling streams at considerable cost to our environment. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Infrared sortable black color palette available • Customized sortable black upon request • Solid or liquid form • Resins: PET & polyolefins • Processes: extrusion, injection, thermoforming APPLICATIONS OnColor IR Sortable Black can benefit the following stakeholders operating within the food and beverage packaging industry: • Retailers • Brand Owners • Converters • Recycling Facilities • Packaging Recovery Organizations PRODUCT BULLETIN OnColor™ IR Sortable Black Collection Ultramarine Obsidian BK Onyx BK Jasper BK BK Panther Iris Blossom Moonlit BK Gotland BK www.avient.com Copyright © 2020, Avient Corporation.
