Case Study: GKD Group achieves agile, future-proof mixed-series manufacturing with abas ERP

GKD Group - Customer Case Study

GKD Group, a Düren-based market leader in technical meshes producing technical fabrics and filter mediums, faced the challenge of managing a mixture of large series, small series and make-to-order production alongside lot management and a company restructuring. To meet these demands the customer has relied on the abas ERP system since 1991, using 79 licenses to support its 530 employees across Germany and to keep processes adaptable and future-proof.

abas delivered a flexible, upgradeable ERP solution with regular updates that handle GKD Group’s complex production mix, support lot tracking, enable the restructuring process and connect the GKD‑USA subsidiary. As a result, GKD remains technologically up-to-date, maintains smooth cross‑site operations and has sustained its position as a world market leader for technical meshes—supported operationally by abas across the business.
