Production Process - Economic and Social Aspects

Factories are usually located in rural areas (close to raw material supplies). They generally employ local labour, often for generations, and in so doing help stabilise local communities.

The industry has gone to great lengths to improve its presence in these communities. For example, storage areas are tarred and regularly cleaned in a bid to reduce airborne dust, while fast growing hedges are often planted.

To improve the working environment, measures are taken to reduce dust emission from machinery.
