Case Study: Shepherd Material Science improves GHS labeling efficiency with TEKLYNX CENTRAL GHS

Shepherd Material Science Improves GHS-Compliant Labeling Efficiency and Accuracy with TEKLYNX CENTRAL GHS

Shepherd Material Science, a manufacturing company with multiple operations, needed a better way to create GHS-compliant labels and simplify labeling across departments. Its existing process was manual, error-prone, time-consuming, and reliant on disconnected systems. The company worked with TEKLYNX and its TEKLYNX CENTRAL GHS enterprise label management solution, including CODESOFT, LABEL ARCHIVE, and SENTINEL, to support compliance and connect labeling with its ERP and SDS authoring software.

TEKLYNX implemented a centralized labeling system across Shepherd Material Science’s businesses, replacing many separate systems with one integrated platform. The result was faster, more accurate labeling, with label print time reduced by 10% and production operators able to print labels more autonomously. The new setup also cut waste in the sample department and helped eliminate $20,000 in annual shipping costs through fewer wasted labels and improved packaging efficiency.
