  2. Decision Making Process • State the decision goal • Establish criteria • Generate alternatives • Make the decision

  3. Decision Criteria • Good Adhesion to random co-polymer flexomer • STAR: Fair • Competitor: Fair • Acceptable Clarity • STAR: Best • Competitor: Good • And?

  4. STAR TPE Approach • Reformulate TPE to bond to Existing substrate • Reformulate TPE to bond to Modified substrate

  5. Reformulate TPE to bond to EXISTING Substrate

  6. Reformulate TPE to bond to MODIFIED Substrate • Adhesion

  7. Reformulate TPE to bond to MODIFIED Substrate • Clarity

  8. Cost Impact • Flexomer • $1.00 x 0.025 lb.= $0.0250 • TPE • $2.00 x 0.025 lb.= $0.05 • total estimated cost per toothbrush: $0.0750 • Flexomer • with maleated PP=$1.144 x 0.0225 lb.=$0.025750 • TPE • $2.00 x 0.025 lb.= $0.05 • total estimated cost per toothbrush : $0.07575 • Difference: $0.0075
