The handle concept was key to the redesign, according to the Victorinox team. THE SOLUTION Avient engineers guided the Victorinox team early in the development cycle for the new Soldier’s Knife, proposing a combination of materials for the handles that would meet the design aspirations as well as Swiss Army standards for durability.

The technical services team at Avient worked closely with the European material engineering team at DENSO under the lead of Mr.

In 1997, the Frog Legs team developed an innovative alternative to the rigid casters commonly used for the front wheels. THE SOLUTION Moving away from machining, the Frog Legs team embraced injection molding, enabling them to create more intricate shapes.

THE CHALLENGE For decades, the team at SurfCo Hawaii, Inc. has maintained an international reputation as a leader and innovator of unique surfing products. Furthermore, Avient’s technical team helped achieve a surface finish that would allow for a strong bond with an adhesive backing and recommended suitable adhesives to achieve optimal bonding of the materials.
