Operational excellence, Lean Six Sigma methodologies, and advanced APQP/PPAP quality frameworks powering world-class polymer manufacturing at Chennai MEPZ-SEZ.
The CIBS Quality Architecture at Horiaki India
Zero-Defect CultureContinuous Improvement and Business Solutions (CIBS) is Horiaki India's integrated operational philosophy. Designed to eliminate production variance, minimize scrap waste, and drive continuous cycle-time efficiency, CIBS combines traditional Japanese 5S and Kaizen philosophies with robust American and European statistical process controls.
Across our 45,000 sq.ft facility in Chennai MEPZ-SEZ, every manufacturing work-center—from automated internal banbury compounding to compression/injection moulding presses and cryogenic deflashing—operates under rigorous CIBS metrics.
Key Highlights & Declarations:
- Kaizen & 5S Workplace Organization: Cleanroom-standard tool maintenance and visual production controls.
- Statistical Process Control (SPC): Real-time Cp and Cpk capability monitoring on critical sealing dimensions.
- Poka-Yoke Error Proofing: Automated cavity pressure and temperature interlocks preventing under-cured batches.
- Root-Cause Problem Solving: 8D, 5-Why, and Ishikawa fishbone analysis applied to all non-conformances.
