Toyota USA is one of the best examples of companies who apply the principles of waste reduction (muda) in every process.
Here, by eliminating cardboard from the process of transportation of their windshields, they managed to reduce not just waste of cardboard material, but also waste of time, space and money, drastically reducing the number of broken pieces!
