Take Control of Your Formulation Margin

Least-cost formulation gives you the cheapest recipe within the boundaries you set. But while raw material prices and qualities keep moving, those boundaries often stay the same for years. A constraint that cost almost nothing last season may be quietly eroding your margins today.

In one example, a cost difference of just €0.50 per tonne can add up to more than €50,000 in annual impact across a production volume of 100,000 tonnes.. Across a full portfolio and multiple sites, the numbers get bigger.

In this brief, you'll learn:

• Why a small €/t difference rarely stays small
• How the cost of a constraint shifts as ingredient economics change
• Which constraints deserve a second look, and which should never move
• Three best practices to keep formulation costs under control

See what changed. Understand what it costs. Decide what's worth changing.
