Papirus is the largest producer of recycled paperboard in Brazil and a pioneer in recycling. With its transformative DNA, it was the first company in the sector to achieve B Corporation certification and remains the only one capable of proving the sustainability of its products, including the exact percentage of recycled material used.
This commitment is reflected in the 11 types of paperboard in the Vita line, such as Vitacycle, which contains 40% post-consumer recycled fibres, and Vitacarta, made entirely from recycled materials, including 30% post-consumer content.
With a production capacity of 130,000 tons per year, Papirus serves the packaging market across various industries, supplying customers in Brazil and countries across Europe, Asia, North America, Africa, and Latin America.
As Papirus’ operations expanded, its existing systems and processes no longer met the demands of a fast-evolving market. Key challenges included:
To remain competitive and uphold its reputation for efficiency, Papirus required a robust solution that could optimise production planning, reduce lead times, and enable swift responses to customer demands.
Building on their successful use of X-Trim for trim optimisation since 2012, Papirus partnered with Greycon again in 2021 to implement opt-Studio with the ATP/CTP module. This integration aimed to address their operational challenges and take their planning and scheduling capabilities to the next level.
The ATP/CTP (Available-to-Promise/Capable-to-Promise) module enables Papirus to:
By optimising machine productivity and minimising idle times, opt-Studio also improved production sequences, reduced costs, and maximised output—all while seamlessly integrating with their existing systems.
The implementation of Greycon’s solutions has transformed Papirus’ operations:
With the powerful combination of X-Trim and opt-Studio, Papirus has consolidated its position as a leader in the Brazilian paperboard industry, delivering innovation, sustainability, and efficiency in a highly competitive market.
“After updating the version and implementing opt-Studio, which integrated Greycon’s solutions into our ERP, we not only improved the timing and resources involved in our processes but also positioned ourselves for more effective management. Currently, we are focused on maximising the use of real-time information, which will soon be available to our sales team and customers. This ability to access critical data immediately will allow us to better meet our customers’ needs and, consequently, increase our operational efficiency. We are confident that this evolution will provide us with a significant competitive advantage in the market.”
