Roeselare Pouring Team

The Roeselare Pouring team is filled with heroes. After being introduced to the Value of Order (VOO), they embraced these principles and began a VOO makeover with Koen and Johan in the Maintenance Department. Adopting the Value of Order principles and embracing a culture of working as One Team brought success to the Pouring Department. This led to a new motto being adopted: “Safety is our priority, and excellent foam quality is our standard.” The atmosphere and culture are profound, and we are so grateful for the Roeselare Pouring Team for their continuous improvement.
