Calculate using Let Down Percentage:
Cost/lb of Concentrate x (Let Down Percentage/100) = Coloring Cost
Calculate using Let Down Ratio:
Cost/lb of Concentrate – Cost/lb of Resin
Let Down Ratio +1
= Coloring Cost

TWO WAYS TO CALCULATE COLORING COSTS
SYMPTOM CAUSE REMEDY
Color Variation Shot-to-Shot
Poor Omnicolor preblending
Pigment has insufficient
thermal stability
More thorough blending
Ensure correct machine

Screw Slip
Premature melting of Omnicolor
Excessive addition rate
Reduce heat in feed zone
Check addition rate and reduce
if necessary

KEY CUSTOMER CHALLENGES:
• Improving Fuel Economy - Incorporating innovative lighter-weight alternative
materials as a cost-effective way to reduce fuel consumption
• Reducing Energy Consumption and Dependence on Fossil Fuels -
Negative public perceptions of fossil fuels are challenging companies to utilize
alternative energy sources and also to reduce overall demand (consumption)
• Reducing Carbon Footprint - Companies are seeking assistance from their
suppliers to address the ever-increasing pressure to reduce their carbon footprint
• Lessening Environmental Impact - Manufacturers are looking to reduce
dependence on processes with high environmental impact such as the release of
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) during painting
