In addition, the
design included more traditional features, such as four
small support feet on the underside of the mouse for
low-friction, easy-glide operation.
As a result, the
customized solution that Avient delivered enabled the
OEM to increase market share and generate more than
$400,000 in sales during the first year of production.
