Reduction of Seal Leakage Rate in Sauce Sachet Packaging Process
The current seal leakage rate of 4.94%, sustained over the past nine months, is significantly above acceptable
limits and is leading to substantial operational and business challenges. This high defect rate is driving
increased rejection and rework costs, contributing to wastage of finished goods, and negatively impacting
customer satisfaction and brand reputation due to leakage-related complaints. The organization is currently
incurring an estimated annual loss of โน18 lakhs due to seal-related defects. By implementing a Lean Six Sigma
improvement project to reduce the leakage rate to 2.0%, the company is expected to achieve annual savings of
approximately โน10 lakhs while enhancing product quality, customer trust, and overall operational efficiency
