Case study: Apotheek Voorzorg

More flexibility, productivity and efficiency

Apotheek Voorzorg is a subsidiary of Mosadex Groep and was founded as a startup in 2002. Over the past two decades, they have developed to being one of the leading blister centers in the world. When needing to expand their production capacity in 2021, they decided for a comprehensive solution with BD Rowa.

The solid foundation makes sure that the machines are available to perform at the word class level. But most thing that stands out is the continues commitment that we get from BD to improve together, and make sure that the machines are used at their full potential.
