HiFlow unveils new software tool and features at Labelexpo Americas

HiFlow Solutions, a provider of ERP/MIS systems for the label and flexible packaging industry, has launched a set of tools and features designed to give label converters greater control over production environments and to automate and integrate their entire business ecosystem.

The company unveiled new features at the recent Labelexpo Americas 2024 focused on improving user experience, enhancing data access and increasing the ability to integrate with other software systems, including accounting platforms.

Labelexpo Americas 2024 visitors could witnessed demonstrations of the new release, HiFlow 4.0, which emphasized ease of use and analytics across production and warehouse.

HiFlow offers label converters a single source of data, secure job and financial data, audit trail capture, job and document saving from one site. The company also showcased its automation of production planning and scheduling tools that allow schedulers to scale efficiently and optimize plant capacities.

The company introduced new workflow features designed for custom product building by defining length, width, gusset and consideration of setup time (like slitting or sterilization) for all production steps. These tools help ensure accurate and consistent estimating for flexible packaging.

HiFlow also unveiled new integration with Esko’s Automation Engine, which allows converters to streamline processes and achieve high-quality outputs within highly efficient workflows.

At Labelexpo, the company launched a new leasing model, eliminating the large capital outlay typically required, making HiFlow more accessible to independent converters.

‘HiFlow showcased cutting-edge innovations at Labelexpo Americas,’ stated Alfonso Hernandez, vice president of sale at HiFlow Solutions. ‘The event was a tremendous success, affirming our leadership in the printing and packaging sectors.’

‘This software version is built on 25 years of MIS experience in the packaging printing industry,’ said Mariusz Sosnowski, president and CEO of HiFlow Solutions. ‘We’ve been family owned since 1999, with over two decades of investing in upgrades and innovation, and we bring those benefits back to our customers.

‘HiFlow has been growing steadily in the North American market, with active customers since 2020 and recent successful installations in different specific and size packaging manufacturers from one to few plants. We were able to showcase functionalities that improve efficiency for label converters and flexible packaging manufacturers.’
