Materials in, materials out — with full visibility

Schedule arrivals and avoid receiving chaos

When multiple trucks show up at once, you need to know what's coming and prioritise unloading. Get advance delivery information so you can arrange trucks in the right order based on what processing needs.

Capture weights and volumes automatically

As trucks pull onto the bridge scale, the weighing data flows straight into the system. No one's writing down numbers or typing them into spreadsheets later. The scale talks directly to the system.

Know what materials you have and where they are

See real-time inventory across all storage areas. Track by material type, volume, origin, and certification status. Stop walking the yard or calling warehouse staff to find out what you actually have in stock.

Coordinate internal logistics with drivers and operators

Guide truck drivers to the right unloading areas and storage locations. Everyone sees the same information on tablets or screens, so there's no confusion about where materials should go or what needs to happen next.

Move materials through processing with full visibility

Track batches as they move from receiving through sorting, processing, and into finished goods. See what's in progress, what's ready for delivery, and where bottlenecks are forming.

COMPLIANCE

Generate compliance reports with a few clicks 

When authorities or customers ask for transfer documents, sustainability reports, or origin certificates, the data is already captured throughout the entire supply chain. Export what you need in seconds instead of spending days compiling information from multiple disconnected systems.

Is your team drowning in Excel corrections and manual data transfers?

You're spending hours every day moving data between weighing systems, production software, and Excel sheets. Someone's always fixing errors, tracking down missing information, or manually creating reports for authorities. Meanwhile, you don't actually know what materials you have in storage or where they are.

Material Flow captures data automatically as materials arrive and move through your facility. Scales, weighing equipment, and integrated solutions feed information directly into the system. Reports are generated with a few clicks.

The impact:

30 % reduction in operational planning through supply visibility.
40% improvement in receiving and onsite handling efficiency through automation
40% faster sustainability and compliance reporting with automated data collection.

Built for recycling and circular economy companies

Material recycling companies

Managing incoming recyclable materials that need weighing, sorting, quality control, and documentation for regulatory compliance.

Waste management operations

Tracking waste streams from multiple sources through processing, with full visibility on volumes, types, and destinations.

Waste-to-energy plants

Biogas and biofuel producers

Tracking organic materials and feedstock through production with automated compliance documentation and origin verification.

Key capabilities

Automated Weighing & Material Reception

Bridge scales and weighing equipment send data automatically into Material Flow. No manual entry of weights, volumes, or delivery information. Drivers and operators see real-time updates on tablets.

Real-Time Inventory & Storage Management

Know exactly what materials you have across all storage locations. Track by volume, weight, or type. See what's ready for production and what's waiting for further processing.

Load Scheduling & Logistics Coordination Get advance information on incoming deliveries and schedule arrivals to avoid congestion. Coordinate internal transport so materials reach production when needed.
Electronic Transfer Documents Generate legally compliant electronic movement documents automatically. All required information is already captured in the system — origin, certification, quantities, and destinations.
Supplier & Contract Management Track supplier agreements, pricing terms, and delivery schedules. Monitor performance and handle invoicing based on actual delivered quantities.
Automated Compliance Reporting Produce data for sustainability reports and regulatory submissions with one click. All data is captured throughout the process and ready to export.
Full Supply Chain Traceability Follow material batches from arrival through processing to final destination. Prove origin, certification status, and processing steps for audits or customer requirements.
Consumer & Company Webstore Select products, book a delivery time, and pay upfront using flexible options. The streamlined process enables autonomous drop-off stations and significantly improves cost efficiency.

Integrations

Weighing & Measurement Equipment

Provides direct integration with truck scales, loader scales, and additional volume-measurement systems for seamless data capture.

Financial Management Software

Integrates with accounting systems to automate invoicing, ensuring material pricing and all supplier and customer payments are processed automatically.

ERP Systems Automated data synchronization with ERP systems provides real-time product information updates, keeping the product portfolio consistently up to date.
Business Intelligence Tools Export material flow data, inventory levels, and processing volumes to existing BI platforms for analysis and reporting.
Regulatory & Compliance Systems Automatic generation of required transfer documents, sustainability data, and tax documentation in formats accepted by authorities.

Electronic movement document

Generate legally compliant electronic movement documents that meet Finland's Waste Act and the EU's Excise Movement and Control System (EMCS). Drivers fill them out on mobile devices, and the documents stay connected to each material batch for instant traceability when authorities ask for proof.
