Congratulations to everyone at our Kostelec plant in the Czech Republic for becoming the first P3 Gold-certified facility in EMEA.
Reaching P3 Silver was a great achievement, but the team kept pushing and working together to raise the bar even higher. It really shows what happens when everyone takes pride and ownership in what they do.
David Ashfield (Kostelec Plant Manager) welcomed Jim Voss (CEO of Tenneco), Olivier Seneca (VP and GM of EMEA), and Thomas Vandael (Executive Director of Supply Chain & Manufacturing) to the facility. Together, they toured the floor to celebrate the team's hard work and thank everyone directly.
During the visit, Olivier shared some words that perfectly capture the spirit of this achievement:
"Achievements like this come from people who are committed to the work every day. People who support each other."
Thank you to every single person in Kostelec who put in the effort to make this happen. Bringing home the Gold isn't just about the title—it's proof of what we can do when we focus on steady improvement every day.
