Contact: [email protected] Website: www.petersoncontrolunion.com/en Of course, a great deal of credit must go to the workforce, all of whom are empowered by Practimax to fulfil their potential. Staff turnover is not high, allowing people to learn and develop at their own pace. In many ways, this has allowed the team to flourish without undue pressure. Time is not wasted teaching new people, instead it can be applied in exploring new and exciting ways of working. One of the moves that Practimax has made in the last few years is in the direction of technology. This is not only proven to increase efficiency, but to make processes simpler and less flawed. Already, the team has been able to implement a tailor-made, built-in system and software, with the setup designed in such a way as to ensure that it runs even when staff take annual or emergency leave. As a company that works alongside as opposed to for its clients, the team are more than capable of providing a diverse range of options that can be adapted to suit specific needs. The advancement in printing technology has made the work of a company like Practimax much more straightforward. State of the art machinery has become commonplace, meaning with the correct chosen investments, the company can benefit significantly and with less than 50% of revenue being reinvested back into the business. As a result, the company can ensure not only better efficiency, but to maintain the high standards that customers have become accustomed to. Needless to say, this approach has proven to be incredibly successful for Practimax, allowing the team to grow significantly while increasing the range of clients that they serve. In a market that is growing, there will always be competition. This merely serves to push Practimax to the next level, as they explore new options that will lead them to further success. has meant that Control Union Malaysia has presented itself as a natural leader, and with South East Asia is leading that push, the success is set to continue growing for the firm. Organisations and brands all over the world have been pushing to increase sustainability everywhere, from the jungles of South America to the forests of South East Asia. Palm oil is a particular weight that many would like to see removed from the shoulders of the environment, and with governments mandating stricter requirements for those involved in the production of items that contain palm oil, steps are being taken in the right direction. The same goes for forestry, agriculture, recycling, and manufacturing, as government mandates sustainability reporting for all companies in the industries. Due to Control Union’s innovative and adaptive setup, it has been able to quickly adapt to changing dynamics and tailor its solutions to meet the needs of clients and the environment. Control Union has grown considerably over the last few years, and that is set to continue with its exciting future prospects as more focus shifts towards helping the environment. As an organisation, it wants nothing more than to leave a positive impact. One such example is that Control Union’s work with Ocean plastics pollution. Studies estimated that Malaysia alone produced 0.94 million tonnes of mismanaged plastic waste. The proper collection of these plastics is the most direct and effective way to limit the damage to vital environments that are precious to wildlife. To address this Control Union recently launched a global standard that address ocean-bound plastics (OBP), with the focus on capturing those plastics before they pollute the ocean. This firm is more than just an exceptional one; it is a crucial one for the survival of South East Asia’s beautiful environments.
