Adopting the principles of 5S (Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardise, and Sustain), we recognise that a world class manufacturing process needs to take place in a world class manufacturing environment, and 5S supports a culture of perpetual improvement.

Sustainability forms part of the VOLUMETRIC™ focus on continuous improvement. We react quickly to legislation changes, acting to meet and exceed regulation requirements. VOLUMETRIC™ measures and reports, using lessons learned to constantly refine our systems. The VOLUMETRIC™ range is BOPAS approved, exceeding energy efficiency requirements under current Building Regulations.
