Steps to reduce waste and optimize productivity
Are you trying to get organized in your office, shop or kitchen? You will need two things: a laminator and a label maker. And make sure you buy plenty of laminating sheets and label tape because once you get started there will be no stopping you!

It is not "one and done" but a never ending practice of continuing improvement.
