PETS FOR THE PLANET
AVIENT SOLUTIONS:
• Super concentrates to color PCR
• Foaming agents to reduce material and weight
• Bio-derived polymers
• Natural scents
As pet people look for ways to reduce their
‘pawprint’ on the planet, they are making
eco-conscious decisions about the products
they buy for their pets.
