Home // Reduce Carbon Footprint by Replacing Traditional Materials Avient developed a technology suite that uses specialty engineered polyketone (PK) thermoplastics and helps our customers meet their goals to lower the carbon footprint of their products versus traditional materials, like PA66 and PA6. The new materials also offer sustainability benefits over the product lifecycle through carbon footprint reductions compared to competitive materials—PK base resin production emits up to 61 percent less carbon dioxide (CO2) than nylon and POM.

What is Carbon Footprint?  Strategies to Reduce Your Carbon Footprint Calculating Your Product Carbon Footprint

Mevopur™ Healthcare Bio-based Polymer Solutions help reduce the carbon footprint of healthcare products Choosing different materials can help reduce the carbon footprint of manufactured products. Now that resin producers are offering bio-based polyolefins and other polymers pre-tested to healthcare standards, the healthcare industry can start switching to bio-based polymers and bio-based polymer solutions to help reduce the carbon footprint and increase the sustainability of their plastic parts.
