Overmolding
Hand tools, smartphone cases and razor handles are examples of products
that benefit from using a combination of soft and hard textures to improve grip,
add tactile sensation or cushion impact.
Use this simple calculation:
SPECIFIC GRAVITY X PRICE PER POUND = POUND/VOLUME COST
Consider the example below.
Specific
Gravity
Price/
Pound
Pound/
Volume Cost
MATERIAL A 0.89 X $1.00 = $0.89
MATERIAL B 0.92 X $1.00 = $0.92
