will keep down
production costs
Of the three prime factors that enter into the cost of production,
two of them the price of laher and the price of raw materials are
largely beyond the manufacturer's control. He must accept them as con
ditions determine them for him.
But no manufacturer can afford te forget that there is a third vital
factor iri the cost of production and that is, Ihe efficiency of the manufac
turing plant itself. A factory planned, designed, built and equipped
under The Steele Idea is an industrial instrument of the greatest possible
efficiency in production and economy in operation.
We have proven time and again during the 56 years of our career
as industrial engineering experts our ability te keep down production cost
and increase production capacity by improved methods of routing
materials, laying out machinery, co-erdinating departments, selecting
and installing power and planning every detail of the great super-machine
which converts raw materials into the finished product.
The success of The Steele Idea of Industrial Construction rests first
upon the fundamental principle that a manufacturing plant can yield
maximum efficiency at maximum economy only if it is planned by men
who are experts in manufacturing and
building construction. The second principle is that a plant should be
equipped and constructed under the supervision of the organization that
plans it. One organization can work with closer co-operation, clearer
understanding, greater convenience and therefore fuller efficiency than
two or mere separate organizations.
Responsibility cannot be shifted or evaded and the owner
can be protected by one contract and one
entire plant and mechanical equipment.
If you arc a manufacturer and contemplate building,
rebuilding or remodeling your plant, consult us and we shall
be glad te prove te you the value of our services.
