With the inauguration of Lectra’s new manufacturing facility in Tolland, CT/USA, on April 4, 2023, the company is accelerating its strategy to bring its manufacturing processes in-house.
Significant investment in inventory and assembly capabilities reduces lead times by over 60%, and ensures customers receive a high quality of service. The implementation of operations in this facility marks an important milestone in the 2023-2025 strategic roadmap of Lectra SA, Paris/France.
»A big part of our strategy is focused on manufacturing in-house and across our main regions. The opening of our Tolland manufacturing facility will enable us to better control production. As we look to the future, our focus remains on providing best-in-class Industry 4.0 solutions for our customers.«
Daniel Harari, CEO, Lectra
With this additional factory, Lectra’s complete line of single ply cutters, including the Z1, Taurus, and DCS series, will be manufactured in-house, enabling Lectra to meet customer demands more quickly. A larger investment in inventory coupled with a move towards leaner and more modern production systems will also enable Lectra to provide a higher quality service for customers.
The facility will enable Lectra to reduce the environmental footprint of its activities and contribute to the design of eco-responsible offers, as part of the company’s global commitment to sustainability.
