Tote containers (‘totes’) are commonly used as a cost-effective way to transport or store bulk products and materials. Space & cost savings: Collapsible totes can fold to one-quarter of a traditional IBC, minimizing empty tote storage requirements. This 4:1 folding ratio saves more than two-thirds of storage and transportation space, effectively reducing return logistics costs by up to 75%.

Avient helped the customer calculate costs for the 12-month period. Projections showed the cost of a new tool would be recouped within months, enabling the manufacturer to move forward with confidence. Even after the cost of the new tooling, the company will save about $72,000 the first year, an impressive and rapid return on the investment in new tooling.

Cost-Effectiveness: Using engineered polymers in electric vehicle batteries can contribute to cost savings throughout the manufacturing process. Polymers can be processed at a lower cost than metals, reducing overall material expenses. Additionally, polymers' lightweight nature lowers transportation costs and simplifies assembly processes.

In addition, the more efficient impact modifier saved the company nearly $40,000 a year in processing costs. In addition, reducing the tote wall thickness resulted in a savings of about $470,000 a year, based on reduction in material usage and lower unit costs for fuel to transport products to retailers.

Making matters worse, the pre-colored PC/ABS material used to mold the parts required up to 10 weeks for delivery, further hampering operational efficiency and increasing inventory costs. Reduced material costs for the affected parts by 16 percent
