Kalstein in China – A Business Journey at the Heart of Innovation
Over the coming weeks, we invite you to follow an exclusive series retracing our team’s business trip to China.
A 7-step journey, meeting strategic partners with whom we work hand in hand to develop solutions ever more tailored to the needs of our clients worldwide.
Episode 1: A Key Partner in the Dental Field
For this first episode, we look back on a visit full of discoveries: that of a dental chair manufacturer with whom we have collaborated for more than three years.
A partner recognized for the precision of its equipment, the reliability of its industrial processes, and its constant drive for innovation.
Immersion into Manufacturing
Our collaborators had the opportunity to discover several facets of their organization:
- Production line: where each component is carefully assembled, reflecting solid industrial expertise.
- Storage areas: essential to ensure smooth logistics and controlled lead times.
- Quality control: a vital step to certify compliance with international standards.
- Showroom: a space where new product ranges are presented, sparking ideas for the solutions of tomorrow.
An Internationally-Oriented Meeting
What made this visit remarkable were also the human interactions.
Live demonstrations in the showroom, the enthusiasm of clients discovering new models, and the synergy between our on-site teams and those connected remotely from Vietnam and Iraq.
At the same time, our team actively took part in the discussions and presented a significant order of 47 dental chairs.
A moment that perfectly illustrates the international collaboration that drives Kalstein.
Strategic Discussions
The exchanges focused on key themes for the future:
- Customization: designing units adapted to the specific needs of each market.
- Continuous improvement: further strengthening quality and performance.
- Lead times & logistics: finding faster, more efficient solutions to support growing demand.
- New models: exploring innovative versions to anticipate sector developments.
Solutions Proposed by Kalstein
As part of a co-development approach, Kalstein shared three concrete directions with its partners:
- Enhancing perceived quality through new quality control methods.
- Improving production flexibility to adapt more quickly to specific demands.
- Strengthening customization to deliver tailor-made solutions for demanding clients.
These proposals, warmly welcomed, lay the foundations for long-term collaboration.
Kalstein’s Voice
“This first stop reminds us that behind every piece of equipment are women and men passionate about their craft.
It is these synergies, both human and technical, that allow us to keep moving forward and provide ever greater value to our clients.”
What’s Next?
This first episode is just the beginning.
Next week, we will take you along to discover another stage of this business journey, with another of Kalstein’s key partners.
