Greater flexibility, less risk for perfect solutions
In a rapidly changing economic environment, companies today face a key challenge: How can they deliver quickly, reduce costs, and meet individual customer requirements at the same time? This is precisely where Lohmann's MTS-MTO initiative comes in.
The bonding expert combines the advantages of stock production (MTS-make-to-stock) with the strengths of contract manufacturing (MTO-make-to-order). For customers, this means maximum flexibility with maximum efficiency - without the need to hold unnecessary stock themselves.
The MTS-MTO strategy reduces inventory risk for customers, as production only takes place when there is actual demand. At the same time, Lohmann maintains targeted inventories of raw materials and frequently requested products. This ensures reliable delivery at any time - and gives customers the security they need.
The result is maximum cost efficiency. Thanks to lean management and optimised throughput speeds, customers benefit from competitive prices and smooth order processing.
Tailor-made competitive advantages
Lohmann's MTS-MTO initiative combines speed and individuality: Customers receive products in the shortest possible time and secure a decisive competitive advantage at the same time.
Whether for short-term projects or long-term large orders, the initiative ensures that customers receive exactly the solutions they need, exactly when they need them. This enables companies to respond flexibly to market requirements at all times and reliably supply their own customers.
