Key to the product development effort was a soft-touch grip that would give users a smooth feel, easy handling, and more physical comfort. In addition, the profit margin on this product was about 30% higher than that of other models. The OEM’s new product, featuring Avient’s contribution, increased market share and generated more than $400,000 in sales during the first year of production.

The summation of these three component costs should help define why one product is better than the other product on pure economics. For example, using GLS product XL9070 (SpGr of 0.89) and GLS product G7970 (SpGr of 1.18), both 70A TPEs, the mass of the part in grams is calculated as follows: If both products sold at price of $1.50/lbs, the total raw material cost of both materials would be:
