“Our ongoing partnership with ESS Ltd has made a solid contribution to these achievements. In 2010 along with help from ESS, we initiated a TPM Program, which we call Total Productive Manufacturing to emphasise the implied and necessary teamwork between Production and Maintenance. We would like to acknowledge the role ESS has played in our success and hope that our relationship will continue long into the future.”
