Our approach to manufacturing

We believe the combination of advanced manufacturing technology; well-trained, engaged and experienced employees; and a system of continuous day-to-day improvement position PM USA to best maximize our production capacity.

Our Philip Morris Production System (PM-PS) is built on a foundation of processes and organizational structure designed to deliver system-wide flexibility, innovation and improved performance with the ultimate objective of manufacturing high quality products at the best possible cost.


Our Approach

Manufacturing premium tobacco products begins with high quality tobacco.

We designed the Philip Morris Production System (PM-PS) based on core concepts of lean manufacturing with a focus on continuous improvement for maximum productivity. PM-PS guides the way we do work across our manufacturing operations. 

Our tobacco processing facilities - the Blended Leaf Plant and Park 500 - have achieved ISO 9001:2000 certification. Achieving consistency and quality are central to exceeding the expectations of our adult consumers.
