The Support from Manex Helped Double Turnover in Twelve Months
Manex completed an improvement programme with a beauty company based in the north east of England
Established in 1997 this company develops, manufactures and fills personal care and beauty products. Inline were going through a period of growth so they wanted a programme centred around improving their capacity and productivity as well as drive a new lean culture within the business
As part of the programme employees on the shop floor were trained to identify areas of waste within their processes and come up with improvement ideas. A lot of quick wins were identified by the team and this really gave everyone the confidence going forward to contribute.
“The consequences of these big wins mean that people become more forthcoming with their own ideas.”
“We were able to standardise 80% of what we do across production lines… [the idea] came from Shane, one of the guys from the shop floor.”
