To prevent cross-contamination of materials and ensure all runs smoothly on the production line of food processing and packaging products, Shaun leads a daily meeting. During this, he highlights safety procedures, quality control issues, and updates on cost and deliveries.
“It is important that there is a high level of communication and transparency between myself and the members of each shift. This ensures that all staff have a clear view of what is required for each customer and any issues can be resolved quickly. This is key to ensuring efficiency!” added Shaun.
From design to delivery, KMF Special Products provides a trouble-free solution for clients who require the separate processing of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. As agile players in the production of food processing equipment, KMF offers a dedicated customer area which allows them to tailor manufacturing processes to suit individual demands.
