How much is one meter of synthetic raffia?
Less use, less cost!
Often, during the purchase phase, it is common practice to evaluate the cost per kilogram of yarns and raffia. Since the use of the yarn is carried out for its length: how much is a meter of yarn? In complete transparency, for years, each of our offers reports the cost per meter of the raffia quoted. Our goal is to make our customers aware of less product use, having the possibility of using more performing items developed by CALLONI.
Thanks to the use of high quality raw materials and the continuous research and development of processes, we are able to offer more resistant and tencaceous synthetic raffia. Using a thinner and more resistant raffia means using less yarn, therefore a lower cost!
An example is worth more than any explanation:
| ITEM | VALUE | UNIT OF MEASURE | NOTE |
| Td | 1.000 | [Denier] | |
| Metric yield | 9.000 | [meter] | 1 kg of this yarn is equivalent to 9,000 meters |
| Weight per meter | 0,112 | [g/m] | Value in grams per meter |
| Cost per kg | 5,00 | [€/kg] | |
| Cost per km | 0,55 | [€/km] |
| ITEM | VALUE | UNIT OF MEASURE | NOTE |
| Td | 500 | [Denier] | |
| Metric yield | 18.000 | [meter] | 1 kg of this yarn is equivalent to 18,000 meters |
| Weight per meter | 0,056 | [g/m] | Value in grams per meter |
| Cost per kg | 8,00 | [€/kg] | |
| Cost per km | 0,44 | [€/km] |
La raffia 2 (CALLONI PRODUCTION) thanks to the research and development employed internally, it has technical characteristics of use and resistance comparable to raffia 1 (NO CALLONI PRODUCTION). The cost evaluation alone would lead to choosing raffia 1, but let's assume we have to use yarn for about 100,000 km, the volumes and total costs of the two items are as follows.
| ITEM | RAFFIA 1 (NO CALLONI PRODUCTION) | RAFIA 2 (CALLONI CALLONI PRODUCTION) | DELTA |
| Kg to buy | 11.111 [kg] | 5.555 [kg] | - 50 % |
| Total cost | 55.555 [€] | 44.440 [€] | - 20 % |
Use of reduced material by 50%, with which each of our clients will boast a corporate message of respect for environmental issues
Total employment costs reduced by 20%, with which each purchasing function will be able to respect its budget objectives.
