Authors:
Ir. K. Van de Velde, Manager R&D
Abstract:
The Belgian company Jaga manufactures heat exchangers and radiators (400 employees).
Philosophy: 100% satisfaction for specific target customers, internationalisation is a very important aspect and there is significant pressure from the market. The focus on high quality products covers at Jaga explicitly also environmental aspects. Image building is very important to Jaga.
A major focus in the company is now sustainability, clearly identified in Jaga?s mission statement.
Van de Velde: ?Environmental and economical considerations are quite compatible, especially in product development. A sustainable product is often a better product and offers more added value to the end-user.?
