Supply chain security: The supply for PVC dispersion resin can be volatile and, when supply gets tight, smaller plastisol producers are often affected the most.
Additionally, supply chain issues around pigments, stabilizers and additives that are taken out of production may leave you scrambling for formulation alternatives.
Larger volumes can alleviate some of the supply chain concerns, so it helps to figure out where you fit in terms of buying power before making the decision to go in-house or outsource.
