LanKorra's Mission

LanKorra believes SMC formulations and designs can always be improved. With our 42 years of experience in developing SMC and BMC formulations, this allows us to develop improvements that can result in lower raw material costs and improve product performance. Both are essential controls to meet manufacturing efficiency and customer goals.

Having our Clients’ best interests in mind means having open and transparent communication of problems and concerns. Whether it’s Process Control, Quality, Delivery, or Costs, LanKorra will work with a selected group of the Client’s Team Members using Value Stream Mapping, and Cost & Model processes to identify any issues with the current manufacturing state. LanKorra’s Consultants will then put together reports and openly discuss and identify opportunities for improvements in the Process, Controls, Quality, and Costs, or the opportunities to increase production with the Clients Team Members.
