Innovation and quality

Innovation and quality, two terms that are hard to separate, as their realities complement each other in the service of one of Tournaire's fundamental values: excellence.

This is how, in order to improve the quality of its packaging, Tournaire innovated and developed monoblock aluminum packaging technology. And it is also this constant concern for quality, day after day, that makes Tournaire a benchmark in its field. This quality, measured and objectively assessed, provides the teams with the tools to continuously innovate and improve our production processes, machines, and products.

Innovation has been part of Tournaire's history from the very beginning, but everything accelerated when the company designed new equipment and developed its first one-piece aluminum packaging. Innovation became an integral part of the company's DNA. Today, this mindset is still part of the corporate culture and continues to thrive.

Whether it is process innovation, product innovation, managerial innovation, or even innovation in business models, Tournaire continually reinvents itself, always in pursuit of excellence. Innovation is also dedicated to serving clients, with a commitment to always support them, no matter the challenges presented. Our teams of engineers enjoy taking on these challenges and finding the solutions of tomorrow.

Today, innovation also involves collaboration, to address the complexity of technologies and the constant evolution of knowledge. Thus, Tournaire has long been collaborating with numerous research organizations: research laboratories (CEMEF) and industrial technical centers (IPC, CETIM, CEA) and regularly hosts interns or doctoral students.

A noble but tough profession, metallurgy also shapes character. And it is thus that from these tough characters quickly emerges a pride, the pride of a job well done. This way of working, of being, soon becomes Tournaire's signature, which modern language has renamed quality. This daily commitment resonates throughout all the teams and constantly drives all employees to always do better.

To illustrate this point, an enlightening story. For over 20 years, the Tournaire laboratory has been measuring the cleanliness of the cans produced, all models, all production lines! Imagine such a database, including data on particles, their sizes, their numbers, their types... It allows internal recommendations for improvement so that the relevant departments can find solutions. And externally, it provides the best recommendation for a client.

This concern for well-done work, for quality, on a daily basis is a constant concern of all the Tournaire teams.

Quality and innovation as approaches to excellence at Tournaire, in the service of product performance. A precious heritage, received from past generations and carefully cultivated by all the teams.
