"The pre-sizing we have installed revolutionizes our former operation model. Nowadays, thanks to this system, we know permanently our stock level for each size. The independent lines of packaging (single size) give us a very high reactivity, greater yields by packing machine and eliminate the repacking works. Thanks to this new method of operation, we can satisfy within a very short space of time the orders of our customers. And this process has a real impact on the
reduction of our costs of packaging."
