Plastic Resin: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $1.75 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.98 at volume, on a typical 30-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point, not a binding quote. Your spec and quantity set the final price.

| 100,000+ units | $0.98 |
What moves the price
For plastic resin, the drivers are density, conductivity, thickness, cut format, color, fire rating, thermal conductivity, viscosity — the spec them differently and the same item lands at either end of the band.
Published wholesale resin benchmarks cluster around roughly $0.80–$1.20/kg at low-MOQ Chinese trade listings and about $1,000–$3,000/ton for many common grades, with engineering resins such as PC typically higher than commodity PP/PE. Pricing moves most with resin family and grade (commodity vs engineering), certification/virginity, and order size; properties like thermal resistance, dielectric behavior, viscosity, and cure/additive packages push custom grades upward. Realistic supplier routes are trade platforms and importers for standard pellets, or plastics compounders / toll formulators for custom electrical-grade formulations
