A Equinix Case Study
Constantia Flexibles, a global leader in flexible packaging and labels with more than 10,000 employees, 55 production sites and 4,000+ customers, faced a highly fragmented IT landscape after years of growth and acquisitions. The company needed to consolidate multiple local data centers, improve reliability and security, and speed up onboarding of acquired companies while enabling greater use of cloud services.
By outsourcing core systems to Equinix (beginning with SharePoint and Exchange in Frankfurt) and adopting Microsoft Office 365, Constantia consolidated about 80 IT sites into three regional data centers, centralized backup and compliance, and gained seamless cloud interconnection. The move delivered improved reliability and security, faster integration of acquisitions, cost-effective data connections, global reach through Equinix’s footprint, and 24/7 access to trained on-site staff.
