Industry: Tissue
Location: Germany
Challenges:
Flexibility is one of the tissue industry’s main challenges, as product formats, packaging types, and palletizing requirements vary widely. At WEPA’s Piechowice plant, frequent changeovers and high product variation made it difficult to achieve efficient palletizing with standard solutions, requiring faster adaptation and less manual intervention.
