THE NEW STANDARD IN PACKAGING The hallmark of a manufacturing company is not only the high quality of its products but also the way they are packaged and prepared for transport. Repeatability and accuracy in these three aspects requires not only great organization and workload but also constant monitoring. The final effect of brand perception can only be achieved if each of the above factors is at the highest level. Only by closely monitoring each of the processes we outlined can we develop, but also maintain, the highest standards. Thanks to a personalized ERP solution, as well as the introduction of a barcode system and scanners to handle them, we are able to describe every step of the way that the tiniest item travels - from the raw material stage to the product sent to the customer - with pinpoint accuracy.

subject of an article in the 7th edition of M Magazine (you can find it on our website). Recently, we have focused on a solution that closes the last part of the process of monitoring the path through the plant of products manufactured by MAEM. Order preparation stations in the logistics and warehouse management department were equipped with cameras. Thanks to the installed solution we were able to verify the correctness of the preparation of each single order, which leaves the MAEM warehouse and goes to the customer. The applied IT system makes the recordings of the packing process available for a long time, after it has been delivered to the address indicated by the customer. We are able to replay or share the recording at any time if the situation requires clarification or additional verification. Repeatability in adhering to the standards set by MAEM makes impeccably
prepared orders shipped around the world the pride of our organization. Monitoring ensures that we can see exactly what products have been packed, and make sure that all necessary markings and documents are always exactly in place. Our partners are assured that they have undoubtedly received the goods they ordered, and MAEM is assured of maintaining the highest standards of order preparation as defined by ISO 9001 standards. We will soon present a new line of MAEM packaging. We are at the final stage of this project. We hope that the effect will surprise even the most demanding customers.
