Snap in Acoustical Plugs from 100% Recycled  Materials
Application Description: Pavaco recycles 30 million pounds of PVC from co-mingled materials into many car components through integrating processing, compounding and manufacturing.	Single Most Unique Feature: Start with post industrial skin and foam and make into car parts without the need to separate them.
Process Descriptions:Proprietary extrusion/vacuum forming and Injection molding processes.	First Usage of Process?: Yes, a plant was built 15 years ago for this purpose
Formerly Used Process: A comingled material is ground, compounded and formed on a proprietary pellet to box process.	Tooling Innovations: A unique tool was designed specifically for this process.
Material Innovations: Research and Development was carried out in order to utilize both materials without separating them.	Mass Savings: .15
Cost Savings: 50% or better of material costs versus virgin material	Cost Avoidance: Landfill costs of 30 million pounds of scrap material per year
Direct Consumer Benefit: Reduce interior noise	Is Technology Transferable?: It is used in all three OEM's and in most vehicle lines.
