Case Study: Swenco achieves faster, more flexible labeling with NiceLabel

Creating a more efficient labeling process through integration

Swenco, North America’s leading manufacturer and distributor of safety footwear components, needed a more flexible and efficient labeling process. Before working with NiceLabel, the company relied on outsourced pre-printed labels and manual workflows that created delays, redundant inventory, and limited ability to quickly adapt labels for new products, markets, and languages. Their ERP system also lacked adequate labeling capabilities, forcing employees to use Excel-based workarounds and time-consuming manual process card creation.

NiceLabel implemented its platform with integration to Swenco’s Made2Manage ERP system, unifying label printing across the business and replacing manual steps with customized print screens and automated workflows. The result was a major efficiency gain: Swenco reported about 50% cost savings on label printing, reduced label creation time from days to minutes, cut process card production from 4–5 hours to a button press, and improved flexibility, automation, and customer service.
