For instance, bath-dyeing and piece-dyeing solutions can achieve deep black shades, but they typically require multiple passes, which can increase costs.
Achieving good lightfastness and washing fastnesses, which are critical requirements for automotive textiles and sportswear, is also challenging without increasing costs.
The concentrates can be tailored to achieve the desired level of jetness while also taking into account other considerations such as lot-to-lot consistency, cost, and formulation transfer to different regions and technologies.

This reduction in energy consumption can not only cut costs, but it can also lower the carbon footprint of the manufacturing process.
Cost / Value Conundrum: The preform manufacturer often incurs the cost of a process aid while the blow molder realizes the benefits.
Increased Efficiencies at the Blower: By specifying these process aids, brands can help bottle blowers achieve higher efficiencies, reducing production costs and improving overall sustainability.

Adding this technology to bottle preforms enables improved recyclability and reduces energy consumption by up to 30% compared with reheat-free PET resin for substantial production cost savings.
We can now work with PET manufacturers in China to help them improve sustainability, combat rising energy costs, and achieve greater market success.”

Lower costs: Annualized production costs came in at $30,000 less than budgeted.
Based on reduced lead times and supply chain costs to get the same formulations from Avient’s manufacturing facilities in China, Andwin Scientific is working to develop Asian markets for the SealSafe® adapter.

Producing your plastisol in-house can be one way to save costs, but it also comes with a number of challenges that could have an impact on your overall operations.
Scrap disposal: Be sure to consider the cost of scrap plastisol disposal.
Astute planning keeps scrap to a minimum and helps offset the costs associated with disposal.

Using less of a higher performing material is not only a tactic to reduce weight but can also lower overall material costs, especially when fiber reinforcement is used to up-engineer the structural properties of a lower cost polymer or as a price diluent in higher cost engineering resins.
Lower System Cost
When all the costs of producing a component are accounted for, using a material that is easier to work with can result in lower overall costs even if it is more expensive on a per pound or kilogram basis.
