The material met all of the company’s performance requirements and offered cost benefits as well.
Design flexibility = fast customization: With plastic offering greater design freedom than metal, the company can quickly develop and produce variations of the part for different customers.
And the material costs for Bergamid resin are lower than those of bent steel plate.

Simply defined, thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) are a type of plastic that have been refined to create a soft, rubbery feel.
Traditional TPE types are made by combining a hard material with a soft material, either chemically or by a machine.
Chemical Resistance by Material Type

When compared to traditional materials, plastics are lighter, safer, consume less energy to make, and are less expensive to produce and transport.
In addition to the lighter weight requirement, the material needed to resist warpage after molding, a common issue for thin walled plastic parts.
Despite this statistic, plastic is the most effective and commonly-used material in packaging, especially in consumer goods.
