Tissue converter Cellynne chooses Xirrus Wi-Fi for Florida HQ, paper plant


   

WESTLAKE VILLAGE, CA, March 4, 2008 (Press Release) - Xirrus, Inc., the only Wi-Fi "Power-Play" that can replace Ethernet workgroup switches with Wi-Fi as the primary network connection, announced today the deployment of their Wi-Fi Arrays at the Cellynne Corporation's headquarters consisting of offices, manufacturing, and distribution warehousing.

Cellynne Corporation is a leading manufacturer and supplier of a wide variety of premium paper and towel products, such as jumbo roll tissue, paper towels, folded towels, kitchen roll towels, bathroom tissue, napkins, facial tissue and dispensers for both away-from-home and at-home markets. They are widely recognized in the industry for their innovative products, long?term partnerships with customers, and steady, profitable growth in a changing global market.

To further increase automation with robotics, Cellynne needed a pervasive Wi-Fi network connecting wireless scanners on forklifts, handheld scanners, and notebook computers to the Enterprise Resource Planning system in order to track all materials and products from receiving, to manufacturing, to shipping. However, the traditional controller-based Wi-Fi architectures failed to meet the reliability and coverage requirements within the 238,000 square foot facility.

"Cellynne needed a wireless infrastructure for improved warehouse management," said Russ Mattingly, regional sales manager at Xirrus. "If a forklift picks something up, it needs to be tracked to the central database-Xirrus delivered the Wi-Fi infrastructure needed to make this a reality for them."

"The Xirrus Wi-Fi Arrays are an incredibly well engineered wireless platform that provides us with the reliability, coverage, and security needed for our state-of-the-art facility," said Sean Peltzer, IT Manager at Cellynne Corporation. "We push automation to the maximum with robotics-it's great to have a Wi-Fi platform we can rely on and upgrade as our performance needs increase."
