Case Study: Mohawk Fine Papers achieves nearly 15% energy reduction and asset sustainability with Infor EAM

Mohawk drives down energy use with Infor EAM

Mohawk Fine Papers, North America’s largest premium writing and printing paper manufacturer, faced rising energy costs that had increased about 30% over five years and represented the biggest slice of its operating and maintenance expense. With motors and pumps consuming roughly 75% of that energy, the company needed better factory-floor visibility and a clear roadmap to integrate energy management into its asset strategy and drive down consumption.

Mohawk implemented Infor EAM with Microsoft SQL Server and deployed it company-wide, integrating thousands of sensors and an Asset Sustainability module to compare designed versus actual energy use. The system enabled condition-based preventive maintenance, data-driven repair-or-replace decisions, and auditable greenhouse-gas reporting—delivering nearly a 15% cut in energy consumption so far and an expected additional 15–20% reduction, along with improved asset reliability, safety, and operational decision making.
