COMPETITIVENESS
Viscofan has implemented a continuous improvement process at its operations, whereby its productive centres possess a structure that balances cost competitiveness and technological expertise.
Low-cost sites, as their structures grow or their inflationary environment increases in comparison with other more developed economies, lose cost competitiveness, which is offset by the technological improvements that they receive via the best practices and process automation from the centres of excellence, which in turn feeds back to the system of transferring non-competitive capacity to low-cost sites due to their lower technological content or lower value as perceived by customers.
