The world’s growing population and increasing agricultural production make water a more valuable resource than ever. Globally, we consider water to be a crucial environmental issue and are focusing on ways in which our business can use less water, reuse, recycle and capture more to reduce the amount we need to take from public piped supplies.
The efficiency of our production operations worldwide is supported by a Kanban "just-in- time" system, by which our many different suppliers provide the parts we need in the right number, to the right place, at the right time. It works using dedicated, reusable plastic boxes and other types of packaging that are designed to hold specific parts so they can be transported right up to the production line in the most efficient way. The boxes are reusable, so there are none of the risks of waste associated with cardboard packaging.
