The possessive case of a thing

Now i have a sentence here : ' However, we can offer you another product: the Blue Dragon cement, the price and value of which are equivalent to the Red Dragon's."
Is it ok to write sth like this? What should i use if i want to indicate the possessive state of a thing, rather than a human?

The sentence structure is commonly used. There's no problem in "ownership" by a thing. All four of the car's tires were flat.
