realized during which new product tests were carried out, their approvals were obtained and
put into production which required changing of 60% of production line.
Although
total
production capacity has increased 50%
in 2012
, quantity of products that were sold to the
market had decreased in comparison to year 2011, due to test works of new products. In
addition to the above mentioned works, studies for increasing productivit
y and decreasing of
consumption at the source, in line with 5S works, were speeded up in all of our factories.

Consumption of Electric
it
y
Renewal of products to a great extent in 2012 and replacement of injection
machines with
injection machines with much greater capacities has led to an increase of electricity
consumption.
Procurement of electricity requirement for the new capacity was made possible
with increasing of amount of electricity transmitted from TOSB power line by 2
-
fold. Besides
these improvements, studies continue on projects for the use of energy more efficien
tly.
Studies are carried out for the prevention of energy losses of motors of production equipment.
As a result of new product tests carried out in 2012, quantity of spare parts delivered to the
market has decreased. In 2012, consumption of electricity pe
