On June 17, 2020, PolyOne announced that it will increase production in Europe of the post-industrial recycled nylon grade Nymax™ PIR and the bio-based thermoplastic elastomer reSound™ OM
.
According to the European Bioplastics Association, Europe now accounts for 25% of global bioplastics production, a figure that will increase to 30% by 2024
.
Part of the reason for this growth is the public commitment of brands across industries to increase their use of recycled plastic
.
Nymax™ PIR Post-Industrial Recycled Nylon is formulated from 20% to 100% post-industrial nylon materials, such as recycled carpet, to provide performance comparable to major nylon grades, including high strength, durability, impact resistance and weatherability
