What moves the price
For thermoformed blister, the drivers are cavity count, forming film, lidding foil, push-through force — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
For mid-range thermoformed blister cavities, the biggest price drivers are cavity count, film gauge/material, lidding foil spec, print complexity, and whether tooling is amortized into the run price; supplier pages and guides show unit costs dropping sharply as MOQ rises, with 5,000+ and 25,000+ tiers materially cheaper than small runs. Realistic supplier routes are Chinese export marketplaces and global B2B directories for quoted FOB pricing, or dedicated packaging converters for branded pharma/supplement work; the cheapest published prices are usually for simpler trays, while pharma-grade custom blisters with tighter push-through and print requirements trend higher than commodity tray pricing.
