Melange

Description	Melange (v.2.1) is a freeware technical-commercial program that calculates prices of mixtures (recipes) from two tables: one describing the compositions of mixtures and one table containing the prices of components. The application is completely SQL-driven (SQLite3).	Melange v 2.1
Application fields: emulsions paints detergents food stuffs surfactants plastics pharmaceuticals etc..	Melange (french for mixture) is meant for businesses that have to manage dozens of recipes containing ingredients which costs may vary considerably depending on oil-prices or season. This holds especially true in situations where ingredients or components are present in more than one mixture in varying amounts. Thus, this program is a valuable tool to see how fluctuating prices of starting materials propagate in products derived from them. Businesses include cosmetics, industrial emulsions, paints, detergents, food stuffs, waxes, oils, etc. An up-to-date price-list of products (without production, packaging and labelling costs) is of utmost importance.
