Papier- und Kartonfabrik Varel uses connectSignage to keep employees better informed. The digital signage solution combines operational data with internal announcements on digital information displays.

The challenge

Papier- und Kartonfabrik Varel wanted to reach employees more effectively with current information throughout the working day. There were no displays for operational data at the turnstiles, and employees could not see an up-to-date count of accident-free days there. These key points at the site entrance were therefore not being used for digital employee communication.

The company needed a solution that would make internal announcements and real-time data visible at these frequently used entrances. It had to bring different types of information together and improve communication across the company. The ability to integrate different data sources for use on information displays was an important requirement.

The solution

Information displays combine company updates and operational data

With connectSignage, digital information displays bring operational data and internal announcements together. The screens show accident-free days, weather, date and time, as well as announcements for internal initiatives, such as an invitation to take part in an employee survey. Live machine status shows at a glance which machines are operating and where faults occur. Different data sources can be integrated directly into connectSignage.

The results

Keeping employees better informed throughout the working day

Papier- und Kartonfabrik Varel reports improved employee information. Important updates are now accessible in the immediate working environment and can be noticed as employees pass by. This gives internal communication a dedicated place in everyday life at the site.

The project therefore meets its central objective: keeping employees better informed about what is happening across the business.

  • Improved employee information
  • Up-to-date overview of workplace safety
  • Machine operating status at a glance
  • Internal events visible in everyday work
  • Information from different data sources brought together
