Plant is a place, where persons, money, material, machinery, equipment and tools etc are brought together for producing/ manufacturing products. Layout means a plan/ method for arranging all these facilities/ things in an effective & perfect manner so that all the functions are carried out effectively and economically.
Layout is not restricted to plant only it is equally necessary for houses, buildings,schools, colleges, hospitals, malls and other such constructions.
Again plant layout does not mean of planning new plants only. It may involve:
1. Re-layout of existing plant i.e. relocation
2. Expansion of existing plant
3. Modification/ improvement of existing plant.
Plant layout may be divided mainly into two types.
a) Product Layout
b) process Layout
