After the celebration of the traditional meeting of suppliers of injectors, Interempresas-plastics universal wanted to know the opinion of the main Spanish suppliers about current issues of concern to the sector in our country.
Reducing the consumption of machines is one of the trends that we hear about more. It is a simple fashion or really Spanish plastics transformer calculated rigorously its production costs including energy consumption?
Competitiveness in the market requires to analyze each of the factors related to the cost of piece. The price of electricity will increase and is already beginning to be an important factor in the cost of the piece. This depends on several factors such as the chosen technology, the adequacy of the teams that produce and the optimization of process parameters, all of them to take into account to improve energy efficiency.
Talk about the future is difficult. But, does he not dare describe the panorama of the Spanish plastics industry by 2015?
Difficult question. Whereas the sector globally, will depend on the price of oil. While the cost of transport is so low, globalization will tend to generate production concentration, accusing the offshoring to emerging countries. If we define by sectors, probably the container and packaging sector will follow with local production.
Their main arguments of sale in 2010 put in first-line matters relating to costs or to the injection technique?
The cost per piece is the main objective of the producer and must conquer them with imaginative solutions, from the design of the piece until proposals for production.
