Sample Questions & Answers

How does the company manage changes in demand?

Demand for most plastic and rubber products is closely linked to the US economy. Because most plastics and rubber products are intermediate components that go into final goods, demand rises or falls in tandem with manufacturing activity.

 

How does the company protect itself from the changing costs of raw materials like oil?

Because plastics and synthetic rubbers are derived mainly from oil and natural gas, price and availability of plastic and rubber products depend on the price of these feedstocks (raw materials). Manufacturers typically pass price increases along for...

          Competitive Landscape Brief

          Demand is driven by general commercial activity and population growth. The profitability of individual companies depends on efficient operations, as products are sold mainly based on price. Big companies have advantages in distribution and can supply large customers. There are few economies of scale in manufacturing; large and small producers operate the same kinds of plants -- large producers just have more of them. Small companies can compete successfully by making specialty products or serving a small geographical market. The industry is capital-intensive: average annual revenue per worker is about $400,000, although the figure varies by product segment.
