Why Are The Quotations Of Silicone Products From Different Manufacturers So Different?

 

Because of its excellent product performance, silicone products are widely used in various fields, in addition to daily necessities, electronic industry, medical industry and industrial fields. When buyers customize silicone products, they usually deal with different manufacturers. In addition to finding manufacturers that meet the corresponding qualifications, the price is always an unavoidable problem.

 

Usually, buyers want to obtain better products at lower prices, but factory’s production requires costs, so there is no absolute high quality and low price, only relatively high cost performance. Many times we see low-priced products, usually at the expense of product quality. Therefore, in order to obtain a relatively higher balance between price and quality, when we customize silicone products, we must understand what factors are considered in the manufacturer's quotation. The following is a brief introduction of SUAN Silicone Products Factory:

 

1. The size of the mold, the number of holes, and the price of the large mold;

 

2. The rubber material used in the target silicone products, such as gross weight, unit price (gross weight + processing fee);

 

3. The cost of product processing, such as the manufacturer's start-up cost, labor cost and the manufacturer's production capacity;

 

4. Trimming, this process affects labor cost, production capacity and burr rate;

 

5. Quality inspection, such as labor costs, production capacity and defective products;

 

6. Packaging cost, packing labor cost and transportation costs.

 

Generally speaking, the quotation is calculated by multiplying the nonperforming rate by adding all the above. From the above factors to be considered in the quotation, the quotation price of the manufacturer is mainly the mold cost, sample cost, raw material cost and labor cost. Therefore, when we customize silicone products, we should not only look at the price, but also consider various factors, such as what we really focus on, and the price of a certain manufacturer is higher, where is the higher price from, and which manufacturer's price is lower, where are the cost savings at.
