All production lines back in operation at ProfilGruppen

All production lines back in operation at ProfilGruppen

 

The production facility at ProfilGruppen that in June suffered from a
major fire has now resumed its production after three months of
production stop. Focus has from day one been on minimizing the negative
impact for ProfilGruppens customers. This has gone beyond expectations
since production could be re-routed to other presses. The restored
pressline has also been partly modernized.

The production was up and running again already after three months,
which is much faster than expected among both internal resources and
external stakeholders. Clean-up work and reconstruction has proceeded
faster than planned and already one month ago the testing of all
processes began.

- "With a strong team, initiative focused, and commitment, we have
managed to carryout the reconstruction better and faster than planned,
"says Lars-Göran Nilsson, Project Manager and Maintenance Manager at
ProfilGruppen.

An even better operating extruding press, based on modern technology and
with updated features and systems is the result from the restoration
work after the fire. Both control systems and peripheral functions, such
as aging, diefurnance and billetheater, are upgraded.

Maintained customer focus, with high attention on customer delivery
requirements has been of great importance for ProfilGruppen during this
process. As a result, most orders has not been affected from neither
delays nor quality issues. This has been possible thanks to skilled
employees within the company who has ensured that the production could
re-routed to the ProfilGruppens other two presses as well as to external
partners.

- "The fast reconstruction of the press and our commitment to our
customers has further strengthened our position as a reliable supplier
in the market. With our larger press in production, our complete and
unique extrusion knowledge is again available on the market" says John
Anicic, Sales Director at ProfilGruppen.
