Quality on a global scale

摘要

Today's tobacco industry faces an ongoing struggle to maintain and improve quality standards while simultaneously reducing costs and improving profitability in a climate of strict regulatory requirements. To stay ahead of these issues, Filtrona, one of the world's leading independent supplier of innovative special filters for the tobacco industry, has developed and introduced new and innovative methods for optimising its quality processes. These processes recognise that implementing consistent quality systems on 12 sites spread around the world is an altogether more challenging task than implementing them on a single site. The key to success when working on a global scale is undoubtedly standardisation.
