Cost Saving is FABORY’s Message to Electrical Appliance Producers

Tilburg, 15 September 2008

Fastener specialist FABORY has launched a special campaign to inform producers of electrical appliances all over Europe of the easiest ways to save on costs and increase operational efficiency.

Competition is fierce in the electrical appliances market. Consequently, the focus of these producers and component producers is very much on research and development on the one hand and cost saving on the other.

FABORY provides this industry with support in both areas. Its extensive know-how can be called on by customers from the start of the design phase of a new product. Advice received then can help prevent problems later on in the process.

Cost savings can be achieved in many ways. The majority of the total costs of any fastening consists of costs for purchase, stock management and logistics. Handling these processes as efficiently as possible is the key to cost savings. At FABORY customers can choose from a range of concepts which can be adapted to their particular needs.  What these concepts have in common is that they ensure that the customer has exactly the articles he needs, in the right quantities, in the right location, at the right time. The highest level of logistical service is production-based supply. For each product that is made, ordering only one article number suffices to receive a tray containing all the fasteners required for the production of one product, clearly laid out in the order of assembly and delivered to the production line.

For this campaign FABORY has also compiled an extensive new catalogue full of useful information and selected fasteners, tools and industrial supplies. All these products have been specially selected for their value in producing electrical appliances. Furthermore, a special edition of the ‘Connection’ leaflet is available, full of special offers for this target group. The campaign runs for three months. The catalogue and the Connection leaflet are available from sales representatives and in each of the FABORY Centres.

Electrical appliance production is one of the five markets that have FABORY’s special attention. The others are machine building, installation, metal products industry and process industry.
