New product launches include globally produced recycled-content thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) offering up to 60% post-consumer recycled (PCR) content and new metallic pre-colored sulfone compound colorants offering gold, bronze, and silver aesthetic effects.  NEW reSound™ REC GP 7820 TPEs: new grades containing up to 60% recycled content from either PCR streams or a combination of PCR and post-industrial recycled (PIR) raw materials, offering a reduced product carbon footprint (PCF) compared to virgin TPEs. NEW Collaboration Campaign Showcase with Merck: the "Unbox a World of Endless Possibilities" campaign, an interactive demonstration tool in collaboration with Merck, highlights the innovative use of effect and functional pigments for sustainable packaging solutions.

Both the PIR and PCR nylon materials can be found in transportation, consumer, household appliance, electrical and electronic, and industrial applications. PCR grades made from 100% post-consumer recycled content Developed in Asia, these PA6 and PA66 grades are formulated with 20-100% PCR nylon

The new grades for automotive interior applications are formulated with post-consumer recycled (PCR) content, offering a more sustainable TPE option with comparable performance to traditional TPEs. These initial grades in the series are 80 and 90 Shore A durometers and contain 35 or 45% PCR content from recycled food packaging.

INCIPIO P H O N E C A S E • Customized a post-consumer recycle (PCR) grade formulated with 30% recycled content that delivered similar performance to a prime PC grade • Achieved high yield rate through strict quality control over recycled products • Offered RoHS and REACH compliant solution to support applications with regulatory requirements reSoundTM R PC Recycled Material WHY AVIENT?

For circular raw materials, the voluntary information about PIR (post-industrial recycling) or PCR (post-consumer recycling) material can be stated in brackets. 3) Farm Sustainability Assessment (FSA) was developed by the Sustainable Agriculture Initiative (SAI) SAI Gold Compliance: ISCC Compliant can be claimed as “SAI FSA 3.0 Gold Level Equivalence” 4) FEFAC: European Feed Manufacturers’ Federation.

Recycled Content & Recyclability We offer color concentrates that use post-consumer recycled (PCR) polypropylene (PP) and polystyrene (PS) as carrier resin. These colorants originally developed for black packaging can be used for the black and dark coloration of appliance plastic parts to ensure they are recycled and not wasted.

Maxxam™ REC polyolefins are formulated with 25-100% recycled resin from post-industrial recycled (PIR) and post consumer recycled (PCR) sources. Formulated with 25-100% recycled resin from PIR & PCR sources
