H.B. Fuller Sets Global Labeling Standards with TEC-IT
Global Labeling
H.B. Fuller, a global leader in adhesives, uses a centralized web-based system integrated with the TFORMer SDK to print hazardous goods labels in production plants worldwide. The system receives print requests directly from production control systems and supports remote printing on both laser and thermal transfer printers.
As global production expanded, H.B. Fuller sought to unify and digitize its product labeling processes across more than 50 international sites. Together with TEC-IT, a custom-built, fully integrated labeling solution was developed – now a key pillar of the company's digital infrastructure. Without TEC-IT, this seamless and scalable implementation would not have been possible.
Challenge
Fragmented systems, manual labeling steps, and regional regulatory differences posed a growing challenge to operational efficiency and compliance – particularly with evolving GHS requirements. A scalable, compliant, and fully integrated system was required to overcome these barriers.
Our labeling processes were fragmented. Each site used different tools – consistency was nearly impossible to achieve.
