Our investments

Labo Smeets continues to invest in people, hardware and software.

The credo of our investment policy is aimed at quality and reliability of our pharmaceutical powder packaging activity.

People

We ensure continuous education for our staff and take good care about our people. We have a very low turnover rate, while remaining dedicated to continuously improve productivity, service levels and quality.

Hardware

Our investment in equipment ranges from state of the art production units for blending, to laminar air flow protected filling. All production lines operate through separate double rooms.

Investing for customers

In some cases we have developed processes tailored towards the needs of our customers. This resulted in long term agreements where Labo Smeets has done the investment for the customer

The most succesfull cases are those where we are involved early in the lifecycle of a newly developed product set.
