Products that are renewable, re-usable, recyclable, have an eco-conscious composition, or meet resource efficiency guidelines fall within this category. This Committee ensures continual progress towards our 2030 Sustainability Goals. We continue to explore similar opportunities to decarbonize across our global operations.

Building on the 2020 launch of reSound™ R recycled content thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) created with Oceanworks recycled plastics, The resulting custom-formulated materials – both TPEs and thermoplastics – will be based on Oceanworks Guaranteed* base resins. solutions with Oceanworks' recycled ocean plastics content are available globally and can be utilized in a variety of TPE and engineered thermoplastic formulations.

Thermoplastic Elastomers | Color & Design , Consumer Products To provide a secure grip for safety and usability, the company planned to overmold a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) onto the handle and other selected areas of the sprayer. With its enhanced processability, the OnFlex-S thermoplastic elastomer enabled the company to solve its 2K molding issues and reduce system costs.

Cesa™ Fiber Additives Hydrophobic Solutions for PP Nonwovens Polypropylene nonwovens are used for a variety of applications, some of which require water repellency. The Cesa™ Fiber Additives portfolio includes hydrophobic solutions for polypropylene nonwovens that provide immediate and long-lasting water repellency.

Thermoplastics offer versatility and a wide range of applications. Our product portfolio, which we believe to be one of the most P O L Y O N E C O R P O R A T I O N 3 diverse in our industry, includes standard and custom formulated high- performance polymer materials that are manufactured using thermoplastic resins and elastomers, which are then combined with advanced polymer additive, reinforcement, filler, colorant and/or biomaterial technologies.
