Be innovative in order to reduce costs and meet new demands in the market
The search for
quality,
reliability, and
competitiveness in responding to the demands of the market form the basis for innovation at MGI COUTIER. In essence, innovation is based solely around 2 objectives: to fulfil the
same function at the lowest cost or
meet environmental and safety requirements with controlled costs.
To do this, we concentrate our efforts on the design of the product, the choice of materials, manufacturing processes, whilst taking a very structured approach with :
- a
hierarchisation of innovations through a matrix,
- the use of
problem solving methods, such as TRIZ.
