Bunting Hires Clausing as Lean Manufacturing Coordinator
Will focus on utilizing a lean manufacturing mindset in order to reduce and eliminate waste.
Bunting has hired Robert Clausing as its new Lean Manufacturing Coordinator. In this role, Clausing will be responsible for focusing on utilizing a lean manufacturing mindset in order to reduce and eliminate waste.
“Waste is anything that adds to the process without adding value to the product,” says Clausing. “It can be as obvious as transportation expenses and as subtle as spending too much time searching for a misplaced item. Everyone can see waste, and even conceive ways to reduce or eliminate it.”
He joins the Bunting team from TECT Power, Inc., where he served as General Operations Manager. Clausing has also worked for Carlson Products LLC as a Supply Chain Manager and The Coleman Company, Inc. as a Global Quality Manager.

Bunting is a leading supplier of separation equipment for plastics processors and recyclers.
