Avient Corp. has announced the launch of a new fiber tracer technology called Cesa, designed to help producers and brand owners confirm the source of fiber, verifying the information provided on labels. The Cesa tracer concentrates contain special taggants incorporated into fibers during the spin-dyeing process and are customized to be unique for each customer and product line. A testing service package is available to customers when they buy the tracer concentrates to determine the presence of the taggant and, therefore, the origin of a fiber. The advantage of this taggant technology is that it does not require purchasing special equipment, Avient stressed in a statement. The new Cesa tracer concentrates are currently available for polyester and polyamide (nylon) fibers, including recycled grades.
