Continuous improvement with Lean Manufacturing

Your business requires high-performance products that are constantly adapting to your new needs. This is why CDE has adopted Lean Manufacturing, a continuous improvement process that ensures quality production, perfectly optimised and with controlled costs. With Lean Manufacturing, we put the customer’s service at the heart of our global approach.

Lean Manufacturing: a mindset

Producing a storage tank or a piece of industrial piping is not trivial: to guarantee you a safe and quality product, the Lean Manufacturing method ensures that we maintain complete control of our industrial processes and our tools. Indeed, the method involves the implementation of tools such as 5S, visual management, process performance, or problem solving.

Industrial efficiency

From the design stage to the delivery of your storage solution or steel toll solution, we are committed to improving the overall performance, as well as that of the equipment. To this end, we have created standard volumes for storage tanks to optimise their lead time and cost, as well as related industrial equipment and accessories (e.g. slab frames). In fact, the best means of production is perpetually studied and all possible opportunities for improvement are addressed according to the “Plan, do, check, act” model, as part of an overall action plan.

Lean: a team spirit

To ensure that Lean Manufacturing methods are applied in an optimal manner, the entire CDE team benefits from Green Belt Lean training. Carried out internally, these trainings enable the deployment of several tools according to the users’ positions. In the end, it is a real cultural change that we have operated to better satisfy you. Indeed, Lean Manufacturing guarantees you process and product stability, while improving their safety, quality and cost.
