Client Services
- License
- The Licensee obtains the use of the molds and intellectual property
rights to manufacture and market the product in their territory without
the time and expense normally associated with the startup of that product.
Also, the Licensee obtains the value of the recognition and good will
associated with said product. Licensee only pays a royalty percentage
of sales making it a safe transaction. Generally, the Licensee may renew
their license for continuity. This format works out best for both parties.
Pay as you go.
This is undoubtedly the optimum arrangement for American Plastics and
their customers. We provide the product Rights and that all important
Tool to make the item. The license agreement may be coupled with a manufacturing
contract. If the customer uses an outside molder, the molder must enter
into our Standard Molder’s Agreement. The intent is for this arrangement
to cover several products (as many as possible) under a global contract,
which products may be added to annually.
- Lease
- In certain instances, a customer may wish to “try an item out” or
take a “test-drive” before committing to a purchase or license. This
way, the quality, reliability, and production specifications of the
tooling can be used in their own machinery and market reception sampled.
When a company enters into a short-term lease, an option may be included
to purchase or license the same product less a 50% credit of the lease
fee paid to date. In this fashion a company may test the tooling and
market without risk. The lease price is usually 20% of the purchase.
- Sale
- When a company is convinced of their market and the product, often
they prefer to own the tooling and intellectual property rights. This
may be accomplished through an outright purchase. If it follows a lease,
the purchaser may apply 50% of the lease paid toward the initial payment
of the purchase.
- Trade-In
Policy
- American Plastic will accept trade-ins of molds that were previously
purchased from American Plastic. Trade-ins are valued at 50% of the
original amount paid as a credit toward a new purchase (not to exceed
50% of the new transaction). All trades are subject to approval, but
for over 35 years, approval has never been withheld.
