Chemical Industry Success Stories

Case Study: $5.7 Million in Costs Taken Out of Commodity Chemical Operations

Other Chemical Industry Success Stories

Afton Chemical - Afton Chemical used MVT® to reduce variation in motor oils and gasoline additives, reducing the level of chloride contaminants by thirty percent. In addition, Afton realized a twenty-percent capacity gain and $650,000 in cost reductions on an annualized basis.

Olin - Unable to meet increasing demand for one of their products, Olin turned to MVT®. By increasing production, the MVT® process led to an increase of $750,000 in annual profits.

Valspar - Valspar sought the help of MVT® to quickly evaluate their processes and uncover ways in which they might improve. Ultimately, the results of the MVT® experiments decreased changeover time by forty-four percent across three plants, yielding an annual savings of $15 million. Inventory reductions resulted in $800,000 in savings.

E.I. DuPont, DeLisle - A particular problem had been costing E.I. Dupont for over two decades. MVT® methodology uncovered a surprising solution, resulting in savings of more than $5 million per year.

E.I. DuPont, Delrin - E.I. DuPont was spending millions of dollars a year on raw materials. Following the findings of an MVT® experiment, DuPont Delrin reduced consumption of a capping agent by twenty percent, with savings of $3 million.

E.I. DuPont Teflon® - When worldwide demand for Teflon® soared, an issue in DuPont's process threatened their ability to meet that demand. After only three weeks of MVT® testing, line capacity increased by thirty-eight percent, resulting in millions of dollars of annual sales increase.
