PolyOne Launches New Textile Printing Technology in China: Wilflex™ EPIC™ Rio Non-Phthalate Ink Mixing System SHANGHAI – March 31, 2017 – PolyOne today announced the Chinese launch of non-phthalate Wilflex™ EPIC™ Rio, a new color mixing system for scre Upgrade Molded Surfaces with PolyOne’s Smartbatch™ Fabric FX

Key applications for this material are within the automotive sector including parts such as UTH covers, panels and inserts, fans and air management systems, battery trays, roofing systems and interior and exterior components. Improved surface quality

Paint adds a great surface finish to automobile parts, but painting also adds cost, time, and other logistics requirements.

We depend on integrated information systems to conduct our business. Our systems, networks and products may be vulnerable to advanced persistent threats or other types of system failures. We will adjust our accrual, in the future, consistent with any such future allocation of costs.
