APL Goes Digital

May 28, 2024

New and Upcoming Digital Age for APL as a New State of the Art Digital Labelling System is Implemented.

In a bid to streamline its operations and adapt to the demands of the digital age, Automatic Plastics Limited has announced the implementation of a state-of-the-art WMS digital labelling and production tracking system. This strategic upgrade aims to revolutionize the company’s manufacturing processes, making them faster, easier, and more efficient than ever before.

Renowned for its commitment to quality and innovation, Automatic Plastics Limited has long been a leading player in the plastics manufacturing industry. However, recognizing the need to stay ahead of the curve in today’s rapidly evolving digital age, the company has embarked on a digital transformation journey to optimize its operations and drive greater value for its customers.

One of the key benefits of the new system is its ability to significantly reduce the time and effort required for labelling products. By automating the labelling process, the company can now produce high-quality labels at a fraction of the time it took with traditional methods. This not only enhances efficiency but also ensures greater accuracy and consistency in labelling, minimizing the risk of errors or discrepancies.

Moreover, the digital production tracking capabilities of the system enable Automatic Plastics Limited to monitor and manage its manufacturing operations in real-time. By providing valuable insights into production metrics such as throughput, downtime, and quality control, the system empowers the company to make data-driven decisions and optimize its processes for maximum efficiency. The move towards digitalization underscores Automatic Plastics Limited’s commitment to innovation and continuous improvement.

As Automatic Plastics Limited continues to harness the power of digital innovation, the company remains poised to drive even greater value for its customers while solidifying its position as a leader in the plastics manufacturing sector. With its new digital labelling and production tracking system, the future looks brighter than ever for Automatic Plastics Limited.
