Samadhan was happy to participate in CorrExpo 2025, held in October at the Savannah Convention Centre in Georgia, USA. The event was yet another opportunity for us to connect with the global packaging community after our successful participation at SuperCorrExpo 2024 in Orlando, Florida. Both events gave us valuable insights into how the packaging industry is rapidly evolving and how technology is now at the heart of that transformation.

Showcasing Industry-Specific ERP Solutions for Paper and Packaging

During these events, we met several packaging companies that were eager to explore industry-specific, integrated information systems that could bring their business functions together on one powerful platform. This is exactly where Samadhan’s Paper and Packaging Suite, built on Microsoft Dynamics 365, stands out. Many of our customers across the world are already benefiting from this solution, and their success stories continue to strengthen our belief that we are truly offering the best of both worlds with the unmatched technological power of Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Samadhan’s deep understanding of the paper & packaging industry.

The Power of Microsoft Dynamics 365

Microsoft Dynamics 365 has been a benchmark for world-class ERP systems for over two decades. With billions of dollars invested by Microsoft each year, it continues to grow in both technical and functional capabilities. Being fully on-cloud based, it works seamlessly with other Microsoft products as well as third-party applications integrations, while advancing rapidly toward artificial intelligence.

Transforming ERP with Artificial Intelligence

The introduction of Co-pilot has completely changed how users interact with their systems, making everyday tasks smarter and simpler. Building on the same spirit Samadhan has also integrated artificial intelligence into its ERP solutions introducing features like payment and inventory predictions. These intelligent capabilities help businesses anticipate challenges, make informed decisions faster, and stay one step ahead in managing their operations.

Building Trusted Extensions on a Robust Foundation

At the same time, Microsoft partners like Samadhan have been building specialized extensions on this robust foundation extensions that are certified by Microsoft and made available on Microsoft AppSource, ensuring customers have access to trusted, industry-specific solutions.

One Unified System – Not a Separate Extension
One of the most common questions visitors asked at CorrExpo was whether Samadhan’s Paper & Packaging Extensions function as a separate extension. We clarified that they do not. It works within Microsoft Dynamics 365 itself, providing a unified experience across all business areas. This helps and give comfort to packaging businesses. With a single interface managing everything from manufacturing and logistics to inventory and finance, companies no longer need to depend on multiple systems or duplicate data entries. The result is a single, clear, integrated and reliable view of their entire business. It means that they will get a one single source of truth.

Understanding the Needs of Three Key Business Segments

While interacting with manufacturers, we noticed three distinct categories of businesses that found value in our solution.

1. Businesses Using Only Accounting Software

The first group consisted of companies that used software only for financial accounting while managing other operations manually or through spreadsheets. As competition grows and regulatory demands tighten, these businesses often struggle to keep up. For them, Samadhan’s ready-to-deploy suite is like a breath of fresh air simplifying complexity and enabling smooth, real-time control over their operations.

2. Businesses Managing Multiple Systems

The second group included companies that already had good ERP systems in place but were forced to rely on multiple additional tools to meet their packaging-specific needs. Over time, this created fragmented data, duplicate efforts, and inefficiencies. For them, the Samadhan Paper & Packaging Suite on Microsoft Dynamics 365 presents a powerful alternative a single, integrated solution that replaces the patchwork of systems with one coherent platform designed for their industry.

3. Existing Microsoft Dynamics Users

The third group comprised organizations already using Microsoft Dynamics, Navision, or Axapta. They were aware of the platform’s capabilities but still relied on spreadsheets for many manufacturing processes. With Samadhan’s Paper and Packaging Suite, these companies can now extend their existing systems to achieve complete integration using their current Microsoft licenses while gaining packaging-specific depth and efficiency.

Industry Priorities Reflected at CorrExpo 2025

CorrExpo 2025 itself was a rich learning experience. Topics such as cybersecurity, the use of AI in box plants, digital transformation, machine integration, intra-logistics, investments in uncertain times, and sustainability reflected the collective focus of the industry. Samadhan’s offerings are deeply aligned with these priorities.

Aligned with Microsoft’s Vision for Sustainability and Security

Our single sign-on Microsoft Dynamics 365 framework connects all Microsoft cloud applications into one unified, ultra-secure, AI-driven digital powerhouse.

Microsoft has also introduced a Sustainability Role Centre, empowering businesses to meet compliance standards and environmental goals, while Microsoft AppSource continues to serve as a trusted marketplace for industry-specific innovations like ours.

Inspiration and Takeaway from CorrExpo 2025

The event concluded on a truly inspiring note with a keynote address by Shaquem Griffin, Consultant and NFL legend, titled “Please Do Not Tell Me What I Can’t Do.” His story of perseverance and strength achieving greatness despite having only one hand resonated deeply with everyone present. His question to the audience, “When faced with a challenge, will you opt out or buy in?” sparked a wave of energy that filled the hall with a powerful collective response: “BUY IN.” It was a moment of motivation and reflection a reminder that resilience, innovation, and belief in one’s purpose are what truly drive success.

Looking Ahead: Innovation with Purpose

For Samadhan, that message couldn’t have been more fitting. Our journey, much like the packaging industry’s evolution, has been about facing challenges, adapting, and continuously striving to do better. At CorrExpo 2025, we didn’t just showcase a solution; we shared a vision of how technology, when built with understanding and purpose, can help the industry move forward with confidence, clarity, and conviction.

Every meaningful transformation starts with a simple step, understanding what’s possible. We’d be glad to walk you through how Samadhan’s Paper & Packaging ERP Suite can make that vision real for your business. Book a Walkthrough at your convenience, and see how integrated technology can bring simplicity and strength to your operations.

FSC in Corrugated Box ERP: A Strategic Differentiator

As a leader in Paper Packaging ERP solution, Samadhan meets the expectations of the industry well ahead of time, before it becomes mandatory. The world leader, Microsoft Dynamics, has also created a module on sustainability, as expected. We use the best of both worlds, what Samadhan creates AND what Microsoft creates, so that YOU come out as a winner.

Sustainability, compliance, and traceability are no longer optional — they’re business-critical.

In today’s competitive packaging landscape, corrugated box manufacturers are under increasing pressure from both eco-conscious consumers and regulatory bodies. FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council) certification offers a credible way to prove your commitment to responsible sourcing, and with the right digital tools, it becomes a strategic advantage.

Sustainability Sells: Consumers Now Choose Purpose Over Price

From personal care products to consumer electronics, packaging is in the spotlight. And what’s on the box matters just as much as what’s inside it.

According to the 2021 Global Consumer Study by FSC®, 49% of consumers are willing to pay more for FSC-certified products.

That’s nearly 1 in 2 buyers actively seeking sustainability in their purchasing decisions. These are values-driven consumers, and they want to support brands that align with environmental responsibility.

How FSC Certification gives a Competitive Edge

In a fiercely competitive packaging market, FSC certification sets your brand apart. It signals to buyers, distributors, and regulators that your business follows globally recognized environmental standards.

When faced with two otherwise similar options, products with the FSC label win — because it offers instant trust, credibility, and transparency.

FSC Certification Builds:

Brand Trust
Customer Loyalty
Environmental Credibility
Relevance for Corrugated Box Manufacturers

Today’s brands are making strategic shifts toward sustainable packaging, especially in:

FMCG (Fast-Moving Consumer Goods)
E-commerce & Retail
Food & Beverage

By offering FSC-certified corrugated boxes, paper bags, cartons, and liners, you’re not just meeting expectations — you’re opening new doors to business.

How FSC Chain of Custody Strengthens Sustainable Packaging Transparency

Consumers and regulators demand transparency. They want to know:

Where did your paper come from
How your corrugated packaging was made
Whether ethical practices were followed

That’s where FSC’s Chain-of-Custody comes in — tracking certified materials from responsible forests through every stage of production. And now, businesses can make that traceability even smarter.

Samadhan’s FSC Integration: Built for the Corrugated Packaging Industry

As a Microsoft Partner with deep expertise in the paper and corrugated box manufacturing industry, Samadhan has developed an FSC feature to integrate FSC data directly into your ERP system.

Our FSC feature works seamlessly within our Corrugated Packaging ERP, built on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and Finance & Operations.

Why It Matters Now?

In today’s regulatory environment, sustainability reporting is a requirement, not a choice. With FSC certification data built into your ERP, you gain the tools to track, report, and act on your environmental impact efficiently.

Future-Ready Brands Lead with Responsibility

By aligning with FSC and embedding sustainability into your operational systems, you don’t just meet expectations — you lead the change.

Build trust with eco-conscious buyers
Strengthen your competitive position
