The main activity of UAB Meksas is the production of plastic parts for the construction industry, the production of plastic hangers, the production of plastic packaging plugs used in the chemical industry, custom production. At present, production is carried out only with partially automated processes. Therefore, a technological audit of the company’s production and production-related processes was performed. His findings recommended the need to digitize production management and plastic processing processes. The main problems are: a) insufficient use of materials and energy during the production process, low labor productivity b) untapped opportunities to start production of new products from plastic waste generated in the production process. The reasons for the problem are the company’s insufficient investment in industrial digital technologies. Taking this into account, the company decided to implement the project “Implementation of Digital Technologies in UAB Meksas. During the implementation of the project, UAB Meksas will implement industrial digital technologies. The implementation of the project will allow the company to increase labor productivity, product range, sales and export volumes, and the company’s competitiveness in Lithuanian and foreign markets. The equipment planned to be purchased and installed in the project will allow to reduce production costs, use resources more efficiently, apply the most advanced solutions in the field of product production.
