However, when determining how to quote a specific application, there are three main components that go into typical cost estimates: This TIPS sheet will focus on the raw material cost, specifically, how Specific Gravity plays a role in the overall economics. As a buyer, one can easily see how specific gravity of a TPE plays a major role in the total number of pounds required to fill the order and the total dollars that will be spent.

How switching to a different dyeing technology for fibers can reduce water and energy use However, the process of how these fibers are colored or dyed has not dramatically changed. In this article, we’ll explore how spin-dyeing fibers can offer a more eco-conscious alternative to coloring textiles compared to traditional bath-dyeing.
