About us

Greycon is the world’s leading provider of supply chain planning and optimisation, forecasting, production planning and detailed scheduling and manufacturing execution systems, that have been designed specifically for roll-based and flat sheet industries. We operate throughout the world. Our strength is the extensive range of specialist software solutions for Plastic Films, Flexible Packaging, Nonwovens, Metals, Converting and Paper and Board industries supported by powerful optimisation algorithms and a highly experienced team of consultants. These industries are compelled to lower costs, improve production & supply chain efficiency, and increase customer service, specifically in terms of delivery accuracy, reliability & visibility and shorter lead times. Companies that succeed in improving performance in these areas are the most successful and are forcing their competitors to follow suit. Manufacturing companies are relying on optimisation, manufacturing execution systems and supply chain management initiatives. Greycon’s strength is in providing a suite of solutions that understand the complexity of roll-base and flat-sheet material production, from primary machine producing the master rolls, through to the final cutting and converting operations. The same challenges and opportunities arise in the production of paper and board, flexible packaging film, photovoltaic film, nonwoven products, specialist steel, aluminium and copper rolls & tubes. During production the variants in the specification of products, the permutations in the allocation of orders, the complexity of scheduling rules and the importance of real-time production feedback, allow an industry-specific solution to significantly out-perform the general Supply Chain/APS/MES solutions.

    Greycon’s solutions can predict outcomes with realistic accuracy, the machine learning model within the software allows users to better decide how to make use of their time. Machine learning will tell the user that the optimiser may or may not deliver a good result. With this information, the user can decide whether to proceed or not. For mid & large solutions, machine learning can predict the likely benefits of applying pattern reduction.
