LEAN Manufacturing and 5S Methodology Process Improvements

LEAN manufacturing is all about eliminating waste from the manufacturing process and getting back to basics. Each step needs to happen in the most logical and careful order to ensure maximum efficiency.

Every team member needs to understand their role in the process and be so familiar with their tasks that everything needs to be second nature. This is achieved through clear and informative signage, symbols and labels, so all staff members understand the flow. The process needs to be easily repeatable and become intuitive.

What to Expect When You Go LEAN

The partnership between Orgatex and Superior Business Solutions allows both brands to deliver customized services to help manufacturers improve their LEAN manufacturing. Some of the expected benefits of working with us on these processes are:

1. No need for lamination.
2. Reduction of maintenance demands.
3. Enhanced material flow and line leveling.
4. Reinforcement of desired behaviors.
