Enhancements in USA 🇺🇸 GEKA’s site in Elgin, Illinois, currently houses two halls for warehouse and production purposes. Over the course of the year GEKA will optimize the layout to improve material flow and process efficiency. The reorganization of the global assembly footprint will dramatically boost the site’s production capacity. The Elgin site will also see the introduction of two hot foil printing machines for cap and bottle decoration. Technology transfers from GEKA's headquarters will include a silk screen printing machine capable of two-color printing, with a capacity of up to 15 million units per year. Production of molded mascara brushes and wipers, previously exclusive to the headquarters, will also take place at the Elgin site. Additionally, the existing filling line will be automated, and quality inspections will be conducted locally with the installation of a GOM machine. This advanced measuring device will enable precise and efficient quality inspections on-site, speeding up the production process and ensuring that all products meet the high standards expected in the beauty industry before leaving the facility. #gekaworld #medmixbeauty #elgin #expansion
