Proseal service helps keep food packaging lines running The fast-response service on which tray sealing specialist Proseal has built its reputation is proving invaluable in enabling food customers throughout the world to maintain production and output at a time of greatly increased demand. The coronavirus pandemic has placed immense pressure on food supply chains at a time when social distancing measures and absences from work are creating additional challenges on production lines as they run at full speed to feed the nation. Proseal continues to go above and beyond, doing its best to ensure that its existing industry-leading turnaround times are being maintained and to provide immediate help to customers to ensure its machinery can run at peak optimum performance. The company’s in-house manufacturing teams are working flat out to meet the increased demand, liaising closely with the planning team to prioritise tasks dynamically throughout each day. This heightened manufacturing capacity has been made possible by the dedication of Proseal employees and the measures that have been put in place to ensure their health and safety in line with government recommended protocols such as social distancing. Spare part production and dispatch has been speeded up wherever possible and this has been aided by Proseal’s strategic stockholding of standard parts. 4 FDPP - www.fdpp.co.uk
