There’s Money on the Floor

Fechheimer undertook projects to identify internal productivity and sustainability initiatives using technology. One area that proved successful was to focus on creating as little waste as possible in their cutting operations. Fechheimer has packaged the technology and calls it “Yield Lion.” The company reports they are now ready to license the technology for others to use.

As stated in Textile Insight Magazine, “Sustainability means more than using the latest eco product or installing solar panels. Substantial sustainability wins, and the associated profitability increases, can often be found internally. Opportunities to reduce waste can pay back more richly and quickly than other more glamorous initiatives. But finding internal improvements takes time and projects often get pushed aside in the pressure of day-to-day operations despite the potential payoff.”
