How much do the blankets cost?
• Cost depends on volume, and if you are purchasing printed Heatsheets, it also depends on the amount of ink coverage (number of colors and size of the print area) and degree of complexity. • When comparing costs, be sure to compare apples to apples and beware of exaggerated claims of savings. • Consider the total cost of acquisition, not just the unit price. AFMInc would welcome the opportunity to review total cost of acquisition with you. What is this blanket made from and how thick is it? • Heatsheets are made from low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and are 1 mil thick (nominally, 0.001). LDPE plastic is recyclable, puncture resistant and does not tear. • Mylar or metallized polyester blankets are typically 0.00048 thick or mil. To AFM’s best knowledge mylar is not recyclable. Once punctured, mylar shreds apart. What is the lead-time for delivery of the product? • Lead-times can vary greatly depending on where the product is produced. For example, a shipment from China can take as long
