LEAN PRODUCTION

For most of today’s newspaper printing plants, making production more efficient and lower-cost is no longer simply an option. It is a necessity – to survive and stay competitive. The notion of slimming down ideally suits times of crisis when cuts are the order of the day. But it also means improving product quality, flexibility, technical equipment as well as the human aspect.
