Production workshops
The manufacturing process
The manufacturing process is based on a ‘lean management’ operation with the following main objectives:
- reduce the length of production cycles,
- reduce stocks,
- increase productivity,
- optimise quality.
One of the main approaches is to produce as efficiently as possible: to improve the efficiency of manufacturing operations, reduce the costs of production and logistics processes, scrap operations without added value, reduce malfunctioning and waste (optimise production resources, reduce time and work expenses and produce what is strictly necessary just in time).
The environmental impact of production
- No water consumption is necessary.
- There are no specific CO2 emissions other than the ‘classic’ consumption (electrical supply and welding appliances).
So as not to affect the environment, 225 photovoltaic solar panels have been installed on the roofs of the offices and production workshops. These annually produce 55,125 kWh which makes it possible to ecologically and responsibly supply 2/3 of the total electricity consumption.
