Our Kaizen journey continues

At the beginning of the year, we highlighted the efficacy of incremental steps and continuous improvement - known as Kaizen - in our inaugural blog post.

We elucidated how, in tandem with our planned expansion, we are harmonizing all operational processes with the Japanese philosophy of work. Following the comprehensive reorganization of our condensate pump packaging line in late January, our logistics department is now undergoing optimization through Kaizen principles.

The entire logistics team actively participated in both assessing the measures and executing them.

The ensuing enhancements include:

• Establishment of fixed storage locations for incoming and outgoing goods, delineated by yellow floor markings
• Implementation of more ergonomic and space-efficient workstations
• Revision of work processes to enhance efficiency
• Streamlining of work routes to expedite operations
• Expansion of storage capacity to optimize space utilization

Nonetheless, we take pride in the strides we've made thus far and eagerly anticipate our continued journey with Kaizen. The logistics team, along with the Head of Supply Chain and our Managing Director, celebrated another milestone with a modest aperitif.

Further optimizations are slated for the entire production department come April.
