Graham Packaging selects Teklynx Sentinel software

Graham Packaging chose Teklynx International's Sentinel label printing automation software to replace its previous system, Loftware Print Server, which was retired at the end of 2024. Operational continuity and budget were the major decision factors. Graham Packaging compared the functionality and cost of their current product to various alternatives and saw Teklynx as the front-runner to meet their needs.

'Sentinel best met our requirements, having enough similarities to LPS to allow us to continue using our processes, but was more cost-effective,' said Noah Davis, IT analyst at Graham Packaging.

With Sentinel’s low-code integration method, Graham Packaging could maintain existing system architecture without disruption or significant customization. Using the same connections and file drop workflows, they migrated with very few changes.

With Teklynx, Graham Packaging is saving money on software and license expenses, hosting Sentinel on-premises with a private server, integrating label printing with SAP, printing uninterrupted to more than 150 printers, designing clearer and more modern labels and achieving 99 percent labeling accuracy.

'This project is a great example of how we prioritize our customers,' said Bill McCluskey, enterprise executive at Teklynx Americas. 'We worked closely with Noah and the Graham Packaging team to understand their unique needs and identify a solution that aligned with their existing processes, avoided unnecessary costs and ensured a smooth transition. The collaboration was strong from day one, and we look forward to continuing our partnership and supporting their growth.'
