While leather offers a lavish look and feel, the production time and cost seemed excessive compared to slush molding. Based on industry averages, a leather armrest typically adds $30 to the cost of producing a single door, while the approximate cost of a slush molded vinyl armrest is about $10 per door. Given industry-specific cost structures for niche vehicle door production, this improvement can be estimated to save the customer approximately $100,000 annually.

Cost of sales As a percent of sales, cost of sales increased from 77.7% in 2017 to 78.9% in 2018 primarily as a result of raw material cost inflation and increased North American logistics costs. Partially offsetting these costs were lower compensation and employee costs. Shipping and Handling Costs Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of sales.

High-quality conductive pipette tips must meet a number of demanding performance criteria, including: • Accurate measurement of minute quantities of liquid • Hydrophobic properties to minimize fluid retention • Concentric dimensions and warp resistance • Excellent chemical resistance The manufacturer asked Avient for a specialized solution to meet these exacting needs in a timely and efficient manner so they could capitalize on its market opportunity THE SOLUTION Avient’s sales and technical professionals worked closely with the manufacturer to understand the demanding requirements of the end-use application, manufacturing considerations and cost. Increased Production: Additionally, the high flow properties of the Trilliant HC formulation allowed for an increase in the number of cavities in the mold, resulting in a machine cost-per-part savings of over 30% Total Manufacturing Cost Savings: Despite an increase I price per pound over the competition, the manufacturer’s total cash costs were reduced by over $45,000 on an annualized basis as a result of the proven, quantified savings in cycle time, productivity and scrap.

Lower Total System and Lifecycle Cost GridCore Composite Poles have an expected service life of up to 80 years, compared to 30-40 years for wood poles. Considering the cost of replacing aged, damaged, and failed poles, the longer lifespan of an FRP pole results in total cost savings over the life of the pole. Lower Maintenance and Resistant to Pests Also contributing to lower lifecycle cost, composite poles require only visual inspection and will not sustain damage from woodpeckers and insects, reducing maintenance and repair costs.
