Reel Stock Analysis for an Integrated Paper Packaging Company

8 Nov 2020  ·  Constantine Goulimis, Gaston Simone ·

The production of corrugated paper boxes accounts for roughly one third of the world's total paper production and, as a result of both COVID-19 and the rise of e-commerce, is a growing market. We provide a fresh approach to determining near-optimal stock policies for integrated paper companies. The new approach shows that existing policies can be improved by a significant margin. In a case study we saw a reduction in total waste by 9%, with a simultaneous decrease in logistics costs.
