What moves your costs
Many small, critical items
Solvents, gases and packaging are small individually, but together a relevant cost block, and often hard to substitute.
Dependence on Asia
Many intermediates come from China and India. Freight and exchange rates influence landed costs.
Qualified suppliers
Switching suppliers is costly. That makes reliable market data for price negotiations all the more important.
How the package helps
1
Check price demands
Market prices for toluene, methanol, ethyl acetate, argon or helium as a reference for supplier talks.
2
Understand packaging costs
PET, PP, PE, aluminium, glass and board in one list, matching bottles, blisters and folding boxes.
3
Monitor supply chains
Air freight indices and industry news on chemicals and logistics reveal bottlenecks early.
