Case Study: Owens Corning reduces label development time by 75% with TEKLYNX SENTINEL

Owens Corning increases flexibility and reduces development time by 75% with the installation of SENTINEL

Owens Corning, a global manufacturer of building materials and composites, needed a more flexible way to handle label generation across its plants. Its existing SAP-based process required custom development for label changes, made it hard to support new technologies like RFID and 2D barcodes, and relied on manual data entry that slowed operations and increased errors. TEKLYNX provided the automated enterprise label printing solution SENTINEL, along with LABEL ARCHIVE.

TEKLYNX worked with Owens Corning and its reseller to implement SENTINEL integrated with SAP, enabling automatic label creation, easier template changes, and consistent printing across sites. The company cut development time by 75%, reduced labor costs, improved efficiency, and minimized errors. In some cases, label changes that once took up to two days now take only about two hours, and Owens Corning was also able to quickly add embedded RFID labels to meet customer requirements.
