Currently, more and more clients want to customize a silicone product, however the fact is that they lack some knowledge in silicone industry, which leads to extra costs or development failures, therefore, some key points should be paid attention to before designing or investing into products;
Firstly, during the development and design phase, product structure is the core point to be considered. If the design of the product is uncertain, to avoid making changes after the molding stage, it is suggested to make a prototype firstly to analyze the structure, Besides that, our engineers would analyze the drawing’s feasibility in terms of production and function. After validating and confirming, we then move forward into molding stage.
In addition to the structure of product, the hardness of the product is another key factor. Whether it can achieve the softness according to your preferences. Invest some time to research on the choice of the color and hardness, the selection of raw materials is also important, normally you can choose different tensile resiliencies and high purity raw materials! It would also be good to consider the industrial standards.
Secondly, of course, you should have a target budget for this customized product and also an approximate selling price of products combined with your brand marketing position and benchmark analysis! That would be perfect if you could have the sense of understanding raw material price and how to calculate the product production cost. which is important to evaluate the manufacturer’s quotation.
Besides of the above factors we mentioned, In the aspect of customized processing of silicone products, it is also necessary to understand the defects of the products and the root cause for the defects, such as the unripe products and the bursting of edges and other factors, and find out the defects of the products and list the standards of the products within a controllable range to make quality stable, which can greatly reduce the losses of both sides!
