Why 5S System?

Modern manufacturing companies face the challenge of increasing work efficiency and minimizing losses caused by a disorganized work environment. Unfortunately, the lack of order standards and workplace organization leads to wasted time, difficulties in locating tools or materials, and a higher risk of accidents. All of this negatively impacts the productivity and competitiveness of the company.

The 5S System makes it possible to create and maintain an organized, safe, and efficient work environment. It engages all employees – from operators to management – in systematic housekeeping and standardization activities. The goal of 5S is to eliminate unnecessary items, organize tools and materials, apply visual management, and build discipline, which translates into higher process efficiency and the development of a culture of continuous improvement.
