Succeed with preventive maintenance by engaging machine operators

Tork®, an Essity brand, is launching a new guide to ‘kaizen’ that aims to help businesses implement a culture of continuous improvement.

Equipped to Improve™ A guide to improving productivity, is available to download here and contains concrete tips on how to implement a continuous improvement culture. In developing the guide, Tork worked with kaizen expert, Jonas Svan.ng

“The goal of kaizen is to establish a culture of continuous improvement by changing behaviours,” says Svan.ng. “When your company adopts a kaizen mindset where employees are given the opportunity to influence their workplace, it will lead to more motivated employees.”

Recent research shows that 89% of machine operators believe that continuing to improve preventive maintenance routines is important and 87% agree that preventive maintenance reduces lost production time.*

“We want to help companies improve preventive maintenance routines by contributing with smart and innovative products that can improve efficiency, because we know small changes can have a significant impact,” says Jenny Turner, Marketing Director for Industry for Essity’s professional hygiene business.

The Tork Performance. system therefore includes a wide collection of professional wiping cleaning products to help optimise autonomous cleaning routines in industrial environments.
