Madico adheres closely to the “operational excellence” models espoused by the prestigious Shingo Prize organization. It is our unwavering goal to be a recipient of the award considered the most rigorous in the world for operational excellence. Our pursuit of this coveted prize ensures we follow the most stringent waste minimization manufacturing processes, reducing or eliminating non-value added steps and waste in the following seven categories: Defect, Overproduction, Transportation, Waiting, Inventory, Motion, and Over-Processing. The benefits for the customer include cost competitiveness, inventory, minimal lead times and reduced environmental impact.
Madico utilizes the Six Sigma improvement process in its manufacturing. Six Sigma is a broad set of statistically-based tools and problem-solving process for reducing variation. The problem-solving process follows the “DMAIC” format of Define-Measure-Analyze-Improve-Control.
Madico’s facility is designed for 100 percent capture of process emissions and is equipped with a Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer (MEGTECCleanSwitch) that performs with greater than 99 percent destruction efficiency of Volatile Organic Compounds utilized in the manufacturing processes. This system also functions as a heat recovery system with 95 percent thermal efficiency. The heat is captured and re-used in our manufacturing process.
