For this reason, a project by the Swiss Innovation Agency (Innosuisse) has made this its mission and is setting its sights on digital solutions. Meraxis is part of the team because of our expertise in digital transformation and us acting as a multiplier in the plastics industry.

Transparency makes our supply chains at Meraxis efficient and safer. The tried-and-tested digital «Track & Trace» solution used by our scheduling team plays a central role here. During the fourth quarter, our customers will now also receive access to real-time data of their shipments. This allows them to track their deliveries at all times.

We are continuously developing our Meraxis customer portal to meet the growing needs of our customers. Regardless of whether they want to digitize their entire procurement process or only parts of it: plastics procurement can be designed more efficiently and sustainably thanks to centralized data, a concise overview, and market information.
