Located in Harelbeke, Belgium, Altachem is a world leader in the development and manufacturing of aerosol valves and foam applicators. To scale up further, Altachem is looking at installing additional production lines on the existing production floor. The production lines at Altachem are high-throughput lines. However, current operations do not allow for smooth scaling for several reasons: first, there is a shortage of free space, plus various manual interventions and dedicated tools (lifting equipment) are required for the handling of boxes and other goods. Altachem wishes to avoid having to invest in these dedicated tools for every new production line.
