Plastics ERP Insight and overview

Looking ahead in a changing market

The plastics sector is under pressure. Raw material prices are constantly moving, regulations are becoming stricter, and customers simultaneously expect sustainability, consistent quality and delivery reliability.

This makes it more important than ever for manufacturers and suppliers to keep a grip on their processes. How is your inventory doing, and which materials are at risk of shortages? What margins are left if polymers, additives or energy suddenly become more expensive? And how do you ensure that orders go out on time, even if demand peaks unexpectedly?

With SAP Business One, you have those insights readily available. One system that brings inventory, production, planning, margins and deliveries together in a clear overview, so you can switch faster and continue to produce and deliver with confidence.

Challenges for producers in the plastics industry

With the right ERP solution, you tackle them in a structured way.

Resource management

Always visibility on quantities and purchase prices of plastics and other raw materials, so you can buy in time, pass on price increases and never stop production due to shortages.

Production Planning

From order to finished product: plan smartly, take into account capacity and delivery times and avoid downtime in the factory due to unexpected delays or wrong priorities.

Stock & Logistics

Prevent shortages and double storage through real-time inventory insight, smart inventory management and clear links to your warehouse and transport planning.

Regulations & certificates
