Polish chemicals manufacturer Synthos says it will streamline business processes, from financials and manufacturing to quality management, and improve customer service, when it goes live with IFS Applications.
The company, which produces synthetic rubber and latex, styrene plastics and vinyl and copolymer dispersions, says it is in steep growth mode. Current plans include increasing capacity for its styrene products, and investing in new production for solution polymerised rubber.
Synthos president Dariusz Krawczyk says that’s why the organisation selected IFS, citing its agility as a system and the company’s flexibility.
He says the company will implement IFS software components for financials, distribution, manufacturing, project management, maintenance, HR, payroll, CRM, business performance, document management and quality management.
“Our goal has been to achieve the best possible production quality at competitive prices, while being environmentally friendly,” explains Krawczyk. “IFS Applications will help us to strengthen our position as the leader in the Polish market and abroad. We would like to become one of the leading suppliers, especially in respect of synthetic rubber, styrene plastics, and dispersion and copolymer products.”
The system is to be implemented in Poland and the Czech Republic, eventually with some 550 Synthos users.
Synthos joins almost 150 process industry users in Poland already using IFS Applications, including Hutmen, Bolix, Stalprodukt, Zlomrex and Sniezka.
