Science44’s Water Polymer Crystal Line Hydrate Fresh Cut Flowers

Science44s Water Polymer Crystal line is odorless, water absorbing polymer
beads (polyacrylamide), used for hydrating plants, fresh cut flowers, air
fresheners, and room decor. These Water Crystals are non-toxic and mildew
resistant, which absorb and release liquids over and over again. The user can
add liquid plant food or fertilizer to the beads for optimum plant care.
Science44s line of crystals currently comes in various colors, including red,
orange, clear, yellow, blue, purple, black, teal, citrine, pink and green.
Science44 sells a 3 mm bead that expands to about 20 to 30 mm. For those not up
on the metric system, the bead expands from about 1/16th of an inch to 3/4 of an
inch.

Science44 offers beads in 5 gram packages that sell on its website for a retail
of $3 per pack, available in small 22 Zip Lock bags, or in plastic cylinder
tubes (call for wholesale prices), and in bulk by the pound, which retailers can
then repackage. The material sells wholesale at $15 a pound, and the price drops
to $10 a pound for large volume buyers. The profit margins are phenomenal. If
purchased in a one pound package, and sold in five gram packs at around $3 each,
that $15 returns $230 to $240.

Because Science44 wants to make it as easy as possible for customers to purchase
the product, it has a no minimum policy. The firm offers starter kits that range
from a simple product assortment pack to a complete event kit, which includes
everything necessary to start a Science44 operation, including a portable kiosk.
Prices for starter kits begin at $300.
