In the circular scenario, which repeats again and again, resources are used to
create products, those products are reclaimed and/or recycled via collection
infrastructures, and the resulting recyclate is then formed into more products.
If not recycled properly, plastics can ends up in a landfill or, even worse,
the ocean.
For instance, recycling technology and
infrastructure must be further advanced in order to sustain a circular economy.

Examples include:
• Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life
and quality of food, beverages, medicine and
other perishable goods through high-
performance materials that require less plastic
• Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier
traditional materials like metal, glass and wood,
which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of
transportation
• Breakthrough technologies that minimize
wastewater, improve the recyclability of materials
and advance a circular economy
• Composite solutions to support accelerated
growth of 5G / fiber-optic infrastructure
investment as the world demands greater and
faster connectivity
Avient employs approximately 8,400 associates and is
certified ACC Responsible Care® and a founding
member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste.
Enable 100% of products manufactured for
packaging applications to be recyclable or
reusable.
With the Clariant Masterbatch
acquisition and divestment of the
PP&S business, our exposure is now
concentrated in less-cyclical and
high-growth markets, with increased
geographic diversification and a more
specialized portfolio that can
significantly expand EBITDA margins.

OnColor™ IR Sortable Black
Infrared Sortable Black for Recyclable Packaging
OnColor™ Infrared Sortable Black for Recyclable
Packaging is a black colorant created without the
addition of carbon black pigment.
It permits black
polymers to be detected by near infrared (NIR)
automatic sorting equipment, enabling recycling.
Detection and sorting of black products in material
recovery facilities is a known issue which affects
the packaging and recycling industries.
