The Principle
- Freudenberg has always strived for continuous improvement.
- From our Japanese partners at NOK, we learned "kaizen", a "change for the better". NOK is the leading supplier in the seal technology sector and a long-standing partner of Toyota and Toyota Manufacturing System.
- Today, we want more: GROWTTH® -- Get Rid Of Waste Through Team Harmony -- is an instrument designed to promote teamwork with the designated goal of enabling our people to continually improve and optimize processes across departmental and divisional lines.
- All our people can become involved in creative, non-hierarchical improvements.
