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 9,100 associates and is
certified ACC Responsible Care® and a founding
member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste.
It’s why we win.

Headcount figures are Pro forma for the sale of Designed Structures and Solutions (DSS) and Performance Products and Solutions (PP&S)
segments and the acquisition of the Clariant Masterbatch business. 2020PF data as of October 31, 2020.
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.

Glass fiber-reinforced polyester is the most prevalent composite used in boats and ships while aramid fiber reinforcement is used in key areas of high-performance sailboats, such as the bow and keel sections.
Glass fiber-reinforced composites are also used in other electrical transmission and distribution applications such as insulators, arresters, and pole line hardware.
Organo sheets are another kind of laminate and can be made from carbon, glass, or aramid fiber fabrics.
