This report covers the thesis done by mechanical engineering at the engineering program at the University of Halmstad. Student Work Development of Packaging in the food industry includes 15 credits and has performed over 20 weeks in spring 2009. The thesis work is a compulsory part of education and aimed at the student must apply the knowledge it has given during training in a project related to reality. Student work has been carried out in cooperation with Hanson & Möhringen AB and the project's main objective was to develop an environmentally friendly Packaging to their brand Falk Salt. When salt is one of the world's cheapest commodity was packing all the costs have to be as low as possible.

This report analyzes disposable Packaging and returnable Packaging with the methods life cycle analysis and life cycle costs analysis. These two different Packaging are analyzed through the company Clas Ohlson?s Packaging-flow. To get a picture of how the flow works, a visit at the company and email contact have been done with Clas Ohlson to get relevant informationToday Clas Ohlson has a big flow of articles to the stores without larger variations in the demand, with the exception of autumn, which is when customers start shopping for Christmas. Clas Ohlson?s articles are placed on a pallet and are wrapped into plastic-film for protection and to make sure that nothing will be stolen.

the most obvious problem at Traction today is the in-between handling that demands much time and resources. The reason is that the packages are not designed with handling in mind. Several of the packages of today also have a poor degree of utilization that means there is room for a fewer number of articles. That in turn means more packages, more transports, more storage space and more staff. On the basis of a specification of demands ? which take quality and environmental influence, as well as transport, handling and economy in account ? we have developed suggestions on new packages that will facilitate handling and lower the total costs, The time of handling will in some cases abbreviate to just a few seconds with the new packages.

?Optimizing the workflow of hydraulic reservoir tanks? is a degree project made by Jonas Olsson, student within the faculty of technology and science, during spring semester 2012. The project comprise 22,5 ECTS.Volvo Construction Equipment, located in Arvika, was the client in this project. The mentor at Volvo CE was A?sa Barck, and the mentor at Karlstad University was Monica Jakobsson.

The purpose of this thesis is to provide a better understanding of how dairies use colour, picture and shape in order to influence customers? buying decisions of fruit yoghurt. In order to reach this purpose the research was conducted through case studies of three dairies. In this research three research questions were created with focus on the visual elements colour, picture and shape. The method of data collection was performed through interviews with dairies as well as documentations.

The purpose of the thesis is to compare Sweden's and Great Britain's total costs for their systems regulating producer responsibility for waste packages. Producer resonsibility is a strategy implying that producers are responsible for their waste also after its use. Sweden and Great Britain introduced different systems systems after an EU directive was adopted in 1994 (94/62/EC), and they have resulted in entirely different recycling levels in the two countries. In the Swedish system, responsibility has been delegated to the industry who are responsible for reaching the determined goals. The economic instrument used is a fee, set and managed by the industry. The British system is more centrilised, and the economic instrument used to finance recycling of waste is a system based on transferable permits. The thesis compares the four different alternatives: delegated and centralised methods, and fees and transferable permits analytically.

SCA Packaging AB i Munksund Piteå är ett pappersbruk som tillverkar kraftliner. De har för en tid sedan inlett ett arbete för att utforma en inköpsstrategi. Arbetet gick ut på att utveckla en strategisk samsyn för inköpsverksamheten som ska vara genomgående för hela SCA Packaging Munksund. Syftet med arbetet var att skapa en gemensam bild av inköp i företaget med såväl brister som förbättringsmöjligheter. Ämnen som togs upp på möten angående inköpen på företaget var bland annat avtalshantering, avtalstyper och klassificering av inköp med hjälp av en positioneringsmatris i detta fall Kraljics matris.

Titel: Kommunikation av strategi inom organisationer ? en fallstudie på SCA Packaging Sverige Ämne/Kurs: FEK 582 Kandidatseminarium, 10 poäng Författare: Olof Ask, Linus Asu och Henrik Dreyer Handledare: Gösta Wijk Företag: SCA Packaging Sverige Nyckelord: Kommunikation, Strategi, Effektivitet, Kommunikationsverktyg, Återkoppling Syfte: Uppsatsens syfte är att redogöra för hur och varför kommunikationen av SCA Packaging Sveriges strategi bedrivs och visa på eventuella styrkor och svagheter i densamma.Uppsatsens syfte är även att visa på vilka problem som upplevs inom organisationen rörande kommunikationen av strategi. Vidare är syftet med studien även att skapa oss enuppfattning av hur kommunikationen upplevts och uppfattats hos de anställda samt hur detta skiljer sig åt mellan olika typer av anställda. Ambitionen med studien är vidare att utifrån det mönster vi ser hos SCA Packaging Sverige formulera ett antal hypoteser som vi tror gäller generellt vid kommunikation av strategi inom organisationer Metod: Studien har tagit utgångspunkt i empirin och har således en induktiv ansats. Vidare har i denna uppsats samlats in data dels genom kvalitativ metod, i form av intervjuer och samtal, och dels genom kvantitativ metod, i form av en enkät.

När lagen om skydd mot olyckor (SFS 2003:778) trädde i kraft den 1 januari 2004 innebar den att ansvaret angående brandskyddet för fastigheten fördelades över på ägaren alternativt verksamhetsutövaren. Från att räddningstjänsten utfört brandsyner på objekten genomför de nu tillsyn som har till syfte att stärka de enskildas ansvar för att de ska skydda sig själva, sin egendom samt miljön. Det som räddningstjänsten främst granskar är det systematiska brandskyddsarbetet (SBA) och inte det tekniska utförandet av brandskyddsinstallationer. Enligt statens räddningsverks (SRV) allmänna råd och kommentarer om systematiskt brandskyddsarbete (SRVFS 2004:3) bör ett systematiskt brandskyddarbete pågå under hela anläggningens användningstid. SCA Packaging Munksund AB är en anläggning som ingår i de verksamheter som ska bedriva SBA och även föra en dokumentation.

Syftet med uppsatsen är att öka förståelsen för aspekter gällande ekonomistyrning och dess utveckling gällande alternativa mätmetoder i multinationella företag på dagens mogna marknader. De teorier som används är ekonomistyrning i allmänhet relaterat till ekonomistyrning i multinationella företag samt presentation av traditionella och nya mätmetoder. Vi har utgått från en modell av Anthony & Govindarajan, vilken vi sedan utvecklat till ett teoretiskt ramverk. Vår studie bygger på intervjuer med 17 personer på olika nivåer och i olika positioner inom vårt fallföretag SCA Packaging. Dessa personer har befunnit sig i Sverige, Tyskland, Storbritannien och på huvudkontoret i Bryssel.

AbstractThis master thesis was performed at Scania transmission department in Södertälje, where the manufacturing of gears is done. Today a large amount of manual handling is performed between the machining and the hardening process. Most of the manual handling is done at the heat treatment department. The purpose of this master thesis is to give a suggestion on how to reduce or eliminate the manual handling at the heat treatment department. The possibility to use the same Packaging throughout the processes will also be investigated.
