First time using this calculator?

Replace the example values with figures from your supplier sheet or measurements. Choose the unit beside each value. Results update as you type; fix any highlighted field before using the result.

GSM means grams per square metre. Net weight excludes the core and other packaging. MOQ means the minimum order quantity. An optional field can stay blank unless the result you need depends on it.

Prices keep the selected currency; changing its label does not convert an exchange rate. Save or export the result after checking your inputs.

Help with order quantity

Enter the usable quantity you actually need. Waste, pack rounding or minimum order effects are added separately where required.

EUR
Help with freight for this order

Enter the transport charge for the same shipment or order represented by the other fields. Use 0 only when the supplier has confirmed that freight is included.

EUR
Help with tooling allocated to this order

Enter one-time plates, dies, cylinders, moulds or setup charges for the first order. Keep this separate from repeat-order cost.

Cost per 1,000 closures

€125.00/1,000 closures
Cost per closures€0.1250/closures
Quoted components / additions per 1,000€100.00/1,000 units
Freight allocation per 1,000€25.00/1,000 units
Tooling allocation per 1,000€0.00000/1,000 units
Order total with entered allocations€1,250.00

Only enter printing, decoration, finishing or components separately when they are not already included in the base quote.

Tooling is the amount allocated to this order; use lifetime amortization if the tooling serves multiple orders.

Cost/1,000 = (sum of unit component costs + (freight + allocated tooling) ÷ order quantity) × 1,000

(0.1 + (250 + 0) ÷ 10,000) × 1,000 = 125

How sensitive is this result to your assumptions?

Vary one input and inspect cost per 1,000 closures

All other entered inputs stay fixed. Ranges are your scenarios, not statistical confidence or supplier performance predictions. This uses the same validated calculator engine.

The formula, made clear.

Cost/1,000 closures = 1,000 × (Closure price + Allocated charges/unit)

A closure is priced as the entered purchased component. Check whether a pump assembly includes its actuator and dip tube, or whether a cap includes the liner and tamper feature, before comparing normalized prices. The thousand-unit basis makes small unit differences easier to review without collapsing different closure constructions into one technical specification.

How to use this calculator

  1. 01

    Enter the quoted price for one complete closure on the intended scope.

  2. 02

    Enter order quantity and any separately charged freight or tooling.

  3. 03

    Review the cost allocated to 1,000 components.

Check the displayed formula and units against your quotation. Use measured GSM, net weight and actual layout dimensions where available. Default densities are planning assumptions, not certified material properties. Calculated cost does not certify strength, compatibility or safe loading.
