DS SMITH (Industry)

Smarter Manufacturing through Process Automation and Artificial Intelligence

Habber Tec supports DS Smith in its digital transformation journey through solutions that combine Process Automation and Artificial Intelligence to optimise both operational management and industrial manufacturing. The automation of critical business processes improved traceability, enabled the integration of systems such as SAP, and increased efficiency across key business areas. Building on this foundation, advanced analytics and predictive models were introduced into the production environment, providing new capabilities to optimise the paper manufacturing process.

With Costimiser, an Artificial Intelligence platform developed by Habber Tec, DS Smith can predict key paper quality characteristics during production that previously could only be verified through laboratory testing once manufacturing had been completed. This capability enables real-time decision-making, reduces energy consumption, minimises machinery wear and continuously improves both product quality and overall production efficiency.
