Color & Additive Solutions for Biopolymers In recent times, interest in using biopolymers has grown in several industry sectors. Color & Additive Formulations for Biodegradable Resins & Blends Using a selected list of pigments and additives, Avient color experts know how to enhance biodegradable starch blends or PLA without affecting degradability of the resins. Starch blend resins often vary from white to brown and this can influence the final color rendering in the application.

Another color-related challenge is the multitude of different color streams of recycled PET, which can limit the uses for recycled colored PET. Fortunately, there is new technology that can analyze the color of the PET or rPET to be used for a new product and predict the range of colors possible for the end product. In many instances, these colored bottles may offer an outlet to utilize some of the less transparent rPET feedstock as the colorant can mask the original recyclate color.

Avient acquired the Clariant Color business on July 1, 2020 (the “Acquisition Date”). To provide comparable financial results, the Company references “pro forma” financial metrics, which include the business results of Clariant Color for periods prior to the Acquisition Date. D tr ib u tio 2021 Expansion Goals With the Clariant Color business acquisition and divestment of the PP&S business, our exposure is now concentrated in less-cyclical and high-growth markets.
