Falken Industries Ltd announced today that, responding to increased demand and efficiencies resulting in part from its recently established World Trade procurement facilities, that it had combined three functional research and development units to enhance cooperation, communication and coherence — bulk chemicals, fiber and nonwovens and personal products.
The decision was also motivated by favorable and ongoing discussions with two Fortune 500 companies and others which through strategic alliances, joint venture, organic consolidations or other branding combinations would exponentially increase the demand for its product conceptions. “Were not there yet, but its interesting to see that these companies are choosing Falken for its recognized leadership in brand and product conceptions to attempt a combination or partnership - they contacted us” said Manuel Garcia, communication officer. “We of course will pursue the talks, maintain our priorities for quality and capacity and of course, first and foremost, keep our focus on shareholder interest” added Garcia.
The new product conception and research group brings together technologies and products that protect lives, the environment and critical processes worldwide.
Among the most well known offerings developed and conceived by FLKI are Hand-wipes, Car Care Products and professional and industrial degreasers, polishes and disinfectants.
Falken initiated the decision to create opportunities for its people and customers by combining these functions. The decision also puts Falken in a better position to accommodate an anticipated exponential sudden growth should any of the ongoing talks reach fruition as anticipated. Management believes it will be able to quickly simplify internal processes, increase the speed of decision-making, and more fully leverage its l research and development across market segments.
These changes will lead to more rapid innovation and improve Falken's responsiveness to customers for its product conceptions.
The functions affected by the decision are responsible for high-performance products and technologies that are known and respected worldwide, they have
long-standing leadership positions and represent applications and technologies that Falken is counting on for future growth of its product conceptions. The company is committed to continuing its focus on capacity and innovation to meet the current and future needs of its customers and organic development.
