1. Plastics Processors Directory - Connecting OEMs with Molders

Due to increased demand from Plastics OEMs to locate the right Processor to mold their products, we're building a searchable directory of Plastics Processors on The Plastics Web®.

Every page (over 10,000) on The Plastics Web® links to the Plastics Processors Directory.

Happy New Year!
The IDES Prospector X5 Team

2. Resin Pricing: access the latest report (updated January 4, 2005)

A special thanks to our members who have submitted the price they've paid for resin. This ongoing effort is extremely important so that resin buyers can review a report of actual prices paid for plastic material.

3. New CostMate® Injection Molding Part Cost Estimator

Back by popular demand, the new CostMate® can help you assess the true cost of a plastic part.

"Plastic part cost estimating is simple in principle, but one can get caught up in all the details, especially if you're not an expert," says Mike Kmetz, President of IDES. "We've found that there is a need for a fast and accurate way to understand the cost drivers when producing a part. CostMate® does a really nice job and we'll make it better based on all of the great feedback we've had."
