Workplace design as boost for you as an employer brand
Appealing design in the laboratory is always a statement, with positive effect on the employer brand. Studies, like one carried out on behalf of StepStone, show that applicants are paying more and more attention to soft criteria such as work environment. Considering employees today spend almost half their day at work, this comes as no surprise. Since people strongly associate the chair on which they sit with their workplace, an excellent laboratory chair contributes to a modern and appealing workplace thus is a real bonus in the "war for talent". To recruit and retain qualified personnel, a high quality, well-designed ergonomic chair will ensure employees are pleased and motivated to work in their laboratory.

Warehouse management:
In Strykow we operate two automated warehouses dedicated to: bulk and packaging operations. The first one with a capacity of 7,3 k pallets supports bulk operations and is used for handling and storage of APIs, excipients and bulk manufactured locally prior it is shipped to Packaging Centers. The second one, with 50% bigger capacity (10,7 k pallets), started its operations only in 2015, is dedicated to packaging and used as a distribution warehouse for all products packed in Polish sites. Majority of its capacity is utilized by FDFs, the rest is consumed by primary and secondary packaging materials and bulk (both locally manufactured and imported from other suppliers). The warehouse and packaging operations are equipped with AGVs which ensure fully automated material between both operations. AGVs are also used on the production floor.
Packaging Center:
PCS started operation in 2015 .We are now in the newest site in Novartis. We are proud that we were able to build and start first production in 1,5 year.
We are operating on 11 highly automated packaging line (Uhlmann BEC 500 and IMA C80/A81 including serialization units USP 2 )
Currently in Strykow we have potential to increase our capacity additionally an extra 5bn tablets starting 2sc floor up to 24 lines. Total capacity 10 bn tabs /yearly
PCS have fully automated flow of material (on production and on warehouse). We have also digital flow of production documentation. Werum Sap and WMS are connected together, operator only has to order right material on the line than process work automatically, and AGVs brings the right material to the line. The difference versus standard systems is that our AGVs are guided similar to GPS navigation. Thanks to laser on top, AGV set their position communicating with at least three reflectors in each time.
We are using an Online monitoring production execution system ANT that allow to us trace online results and problems on each line using laptop or even cell phone what ensures fast reaction.
We are also equipped in automated format parts washer that help us to reduce time of cleaning and drying.
Key numbers (2019):
- Total pallets shipped to customers (Finished Dosage Form) ~ 60 k, over 1000 trucks
- Total pallets received ~ 25
