LIQUI MOLY is constantly looking for new ways to optimize processes and increase efficiency – this not only benefits us, but also our suppliers, business and trade partners and all customers. A current approach is to reduce the existing canister colors: The colors purple, light blue and red are discontinued and replaced by the color dark blue or black.
Benefits of the color change
- Increased production efficiency
- Optimization of space requirements and productivity
- Reduced downtime due to reduced retooling in production
- Great benefit in availability and procurement as well as warehouse logistics
- Faster and more flexible delivery of goods
