PIR is raw material made from scrap reclaimed within the manufacturing process. Why Three-Party Collaboration Leads to Bottle Manufacturing Success Why Three-Party Collaboration Leads to Bottle Manufacturing Success

– At Medical Design and Manufacturing (MD&M) West 2017 this week, PolyOne is demonstrating commercial medical products designed and built from its comprehensive portfolio of technologies for the healthcare industry. With one of the widest and deepest collections of regulatory-compliant medical polymers and colorants available, we’re able to collaborate with manufacturers to help them successfully develop next-generation products,” said Cathy Dodd, vice president, marketing, PolyOne. GLS™ Versaflex™ HC Thermoplastic Elastomer: •    Gives OEMs the design freedom to make their own syringe stoppers and improve manufacturing processes versus traditional thermoset rubber stoppers •    Simple, one-step injection molding process versus multiple steps with thermoset rubber  •    Streamlines production while increasing margins and profitability

Avient’s custom manufacturing and design capabilities allow us to assist you through all phases of development, from design to installation. Avient manufactures ballistic composite panels in Englewood, Colorado, and Birmingham, Alabama, in accordance with UL 752 specifications for ballistic resistance. Thermoset composite sandwich panels manufactured via continuous resin transfer molding for custom engineered performance.

In response,manufacturers want to expand their color palettes while maintaining high weathering performance. We’ve developed Geon Bold vinyl solutions to address a recognized industry issue and help these manufacturers grow their market share and enhance brand image by delivering preferred color choices and the enduring performance their consumers want.” When selecting a solution for a dark colored application, key factors building product manufacturers must consider include part orientation, solar heat build-up, profile configuration and extrusion conditions.

PolyOne’s customer innovation center (Room S230 BC) will highlight advanced polymer formulations that help brand owners and manufacturers grow and evolve while also enabling their customers to get more done and enjoy life more. Together with our design resources, we are exploring this technology to help customers evaluate multiple iterations faster and optimize their manufacturing process as well as their product’s performance and aesthetics,” Dodd explained. Versaflex™ VDT Vibration Damping TPE for Overmolding enables manufacturers of consumer electronics, power tools, sporting goods and appliances to add comfort and resilience to their products, providing a better end-user experience.

Many original equipment manufacturers and plastic injection molding companies in the packaging industry are prioritizing the replacement of ABS. The new Gravi-Tech 5200 MS grades are manufactured in Europe and commercially available worldwide. To support customer needs, manufacturing of these grades may be translated to other Avient sites in North America and Asia.  

The seismic shift in performance enables body armor manufacturers to design soft armor vests 10–20% lighter than previous protective solutions. We’re proud to offer a next-generation UD material that enables body armor manufacturers to design soft armor vests that are up to 20% lighter than previous solutions, all while maintaining the highest levels of ballistic protection.”   Now available for use in law enforcement vests for the US market, Dyneema® SB301 material is manufactured in Greenville, North Carolina, in compliance with the Berry Amendment, with additional markets to follow.

This new pre-tested bio-PP standard color range can help manufacturers speed up their product development cycle and increase the sustainability of their products. Three standard white colorants in bio-polyethylene are also available for pharmaceutical packaging manufacturers.     All the materials are manufactured in ISO 13485-2016 certified sites and supported by testing to ISO 10993-1, USP, EP, and ICH Q3D protocols.
