When it comes to sourcing bar mats for businesses, controlling costs without compromising on quality is essential. This blog explores effective strategies to lower the purchasing costs of bar mats.
Material Selection
PVC vs. Silicone The choice of material significantly impacts cost. Opting for PVC over silicone can result in substantial savings. PVC, being less expensive, offers a budget-friendly alternative while still maintaining durability and functionality.
Product Size Matters
The dimensions of a bar mat – length, width, and height – determine both its weight and the amount of material required. Larger sizes naturally entail higher material costs. Therefore, choosing a size that balances functional utility and material usage can lead to cost efficiency.
Complexity of Design
The intricacy of patterns or logos directly affects production costs. More complex designs necessitate longer production times for both molds and final products, thus increasing the overall cost. Simplifying designs without sacrificing brand impact can be a smart move to manage expenses.
Number of Colors Used
A design with multiple colors can complicate the production process and extend production time, leading to higher costs. Limiting the color palette, or using fewer colors in a design, can streamline production and reduce expenses.
Quantity of Order
Bulk orders can significantly decrease the cost per unit. As the total order quantity increases, the costs distributed across all production processes are reduced. This economy of scale means larger orders can offer better value for money.
