Sustainability in Healthcare

Plastics are a crucial tool in saving lives and improving health and safety in our communities. Protective equipment like masks and sterile packaging help to prevent disease transmission, while critical devices like ventilators and CPAP machines work to save lives. At Avient, we understand the need for medicine is an exact science, so our teams work closely with our customers to meet their demanding performance and regulatory requirements. We help our customers overcome healthcare challenges with durable, lightweight, and eco-conscious materials. From labware for diagnostic testing to CT scanners for pinpointing the location of tumors, we continue to help our customers increase the quality of human life.

As the focus on sustainability continues to grow in the healthcare industry, Avient has continued to evolve our portfolio to meet our customers’ needs. Our portfolio is designed to help our customers overcome healthcare challenges with durable, lightweight, eco-conscious and lower carbon footprint materials.
