Kita-san’s evolution
In this category, we introduce our evolutionary activities that coincided with investments in plant and equipment, and R&D. These posts focus on the evolution of our factory facilities and production equipment, as well as the evolution of our technical and developmental capabilities.
Our KAIZEN (improvements)
In this category, we introduce improvement activities initiated primarily at our manufacturing sites. The majority of these posts are the results of our 5S activities, risk prediction and avoidance activities, and trend management activities with control charts.
